[PATCH 0/2] Modularize RPMH driver

From: Maulik Shah
Date: Wed Aug 19 2020 - 06:08:59 EST


This series is to modularize RPMH driver

The tracepoint in RPMH driver was changed to _rcuidle variant based on the
test results of unmerged series [1] where .power_off callback from genpd
reported RCU warnings.

The series which finally got merged [2] uses CPU PM notifications
and genpd .power_off callback is not implemented in RPMH driver to invoke
rpmh_flush(). The CPU PM notifications are done with RCU non idle in kernel
(see cpu_pm_notify() uses rcu_irq_enter_irqson() before notifications)

However using _rcuidle variant prevented RPMH driver to compile as module
since these _rcuidle are not exported symbols for tracepoints.

This seris reverts the change [3] to remove _rcuidle variant for tracepoint
as its no more valid test case (genpd .power_off is not implemented)
and bring backs the change [4] that was reverted due to _rcuidle preventing
to become modular.
