[PATCH v2 5/6] driver core: Fix handling of runtime PM flags in device_link_add()

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

After commit ead18c23c263 ("driver core: Introduce device links
reference counting"), if if there is a link between the given supplier
and the given consumer already, device_link_add() will refcount it
and return it unconditionally without updating its flags.  It is
possible, however, that the second (or any subsequent) caller of
device_link_add() for the same consumer-supplier pair will pass
DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME, possibly along with DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE, in flags
to it and the existing link may not behave as expected then.

First, if DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME is not set in the existing link's flags
at all, it needs to be set like during the original initialization of
the link.

Second, if DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE is passed to device_link_add() in flags
(in addition to DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME), the existing link should to be
updated to reflect the "active" runtime PM configuration of the
consumer-supplier pair and extra care must be taken here to avoid
possible destructive races with runtime PM of the consumer.

To that end, redefine the rpm_active field in struct device_link
as a refcount, initialize it to 1 and make rpm_resume() (for the
consumer) and device_link_add() increment it whenever they acquire
a runtime PM reference on the supplier device.  Accordingly, make
rpm_suspend() (for the consumer) and pm_runtime_clean_up_links()
decrement it and drop runtime PM references to the supplier
device in a loop until rpm_active becones 1 again.

I have overlooked the fact that rpm_put_suppliers() doesn't even look
at the DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME link flag and only checks rpm_active for each
link in the list, so updating rpm_active for existing links from
device_link_add() is unsafe, regardless of whether or not DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME
is set in their flags.  Of course, this means that the previous version of
this patch was incorrect.

I also was kind of unhappy with returning NULL to the callers of
device_link_add() who passed DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE in flags, but the link
(with DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME set) had been there already.

So, here's a v2 of just this patch (the other patches in the series don't
change).

-> v2:
  * Redefine rpm_active in struct device_link as a refcount.
  * Rework the code to use the refcount instead of the bool properly.
  * Make device_link_add() increment rpm_active for existing links.

Admittedly, turning rpm_active into a refcount theoretically increases the
overhead of using device links in runtime PM, so it is a concession of sorts,
but I didn't see any other way to make this work.
