[PATCH v2 06/17] Revert "driver core: fw_devlink: Add support for batching fwnode parsing"

From: Saravana Kannan
Date: Fri Nov 20 2020 - 21:03:03 EST


This reverts commit 716a7a25969003d82ab738179c3f1068a120ed11.

The fw_devlink_pause/resume() APIs added by the commit being reverted
were a first cut attempt at optimizing boot time. But these APIs don't
fully solve the problem and are very fragile (can only be used for the
top level devices being added). This series replaces them with a much
better optimization that works for all device additions and also has the
benefit of reducing the complexity of the firmware (DT, EFI) specific
code and abstracting out common code to driver core.

-/**
- * fw_devlink_pause - Pause parsing of fwnode to create device links
- *
- * Calling this function defers any fwnode parsing to create device links until
- * fw_devlink_resume() is called. Both these functions are ref counted and the
- * caller needs to match the calls.
- *
- * While fw_devlink is paused:
- * - Any device that is added won't have its fwnode parsed to create device
- * links.
- * - The probe of the device will also be deferred during this period.
- * - Any devices that were already added, but waiting for suppliers won't be
- * able to link to newly added devices.
- *
- * Once fw_devlink_resume():
- * - All the fwnodes that was not parsed will be parsed.
- * - All the devices that were deferred probing will be reattempted if they
- * aren't waiting for any more suppliers.
- *
- * This pair of functions, is mainly meant to optimize the parsing of fwnodes
- * when a lot of devices that need to link to each other are added in a short
- * interval of time. For example, adding all the top level devices in a system.
- *
- * For example, if N devices are added and:
- * - All the consumers are added before their suppliers
- * - All the suppliers of the N devices are part of the N devices
- *
- * Then:
- *
- * - With the use of fw_devlink_pause() and fw_devlink_resume(), each device
- * will only need one parsing of its fwnode because it is guaranteed to find
- * all the supplier devices already registered and ready to link to. It won't
- * have to do another pass later to find one or more suppliers it couldn't
- * find in the first parse of the fwnode. So, we'll only need O(N) fwnode
- * parses.
- *
- * - Without the use of fw_devlink_pause() and fw_devlink_resume(), we would
- * end up doing O(N^2) parses of fwnodes because every device that's added is
- * guaranteed to trigger a parse of the fwnode of every device added before
- * it. This O(N^2) parse is made worse by the fact that when a fwnode of a
- * device is parsed, all it descendant devices might need to have their
- * fwnodes parsed too (even if the devices themselves aren't added).
