[PATCH v3] amba: Remove deferred device addition

From: Saravana Kannan
Date: Thu Mar 04 2021 - 14:52:19 EST


The uevents generated for an amba device need PID and CID information
that's available only when the amba device is powered on, clocked and
out of reset. So, if those resources aren't available, the information
can't be read to generate the uevents. To workaround this requirement,
if the resources weren't available, the device addition was deferred and
retried periodically.

However, this deferred addition retry isn't based on resources becoming
available. Instead, it's retried every 5 seconds and causes arbitrary
probe delays for amba devices and their consumers.

Also, maintaining a separate deferred-probe like mechanism is
maintenance headache.

With this commit, instead of deferring the device addition, we simply
defer the generation of uevents for the device and probing of the device
(because drivers needs PID and CID to match) until the PID and CID
information can be read. This allows us to delete all the amba specific
deferring code and also avoid the arbitrary probing delays.

v1 -> v2:
- Dropped RFC tag
- Complete rewrite to not use stub devices.
v2 -> v3:
- Flipped the if() condition for hard-coded periphids.
- Added a stub driver to handle the case where all amba drivers are
modules loaded by uevents.
- Cc Marek after I realized I forgot to add him.

Marek,

Would you mind testing this? It looks okay with my limited testing.
