released.

<title>PM: domains: Add flags to specify power on attach/detach</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d42c7c6fd66a6e2a78ae1da666c5df6c2fde8389</id>
<content type='text'>
Calling dev_pm_domain_attach()/dev_pm_domain_detach() in bus driver
probe/remove functions can affect system behavior when the drivers
attached to the bus use devres-managed resources. Since devres actions
may need to access device registers, calling dev_pm_domain_detach() too
early, i.e., before these actions complete, can cause failures on some
systems. One such example is Renesas RZ/G3S SoC-based platforms.

If the device clocks are managed via PM domains, invoking
dev_pm_domain_detach() in the bus driver's remove function removes the
device's clocks from the PM domain, preventing any subsequent
pm_runtime_resume*() calls from enabling those clocks.

The second argument of dev_pm_domain_attach() specifies whether the PM
domain should be powered on during attachment. Likewise, the second
argument of dev_pm_domain_detach() indicates whether the domain should be
powered off during detachment.

Upcoming changes address the issue described above (initially for the
platform bus only) by deferring the call to dev_pm_domain_detach() until
after devres_release_all() in device_unbind_cleanup(). The detach_power_off
field in struct dev_pm_info stores the detach power off info from the
second argument of dev_pm_domain_attach().

Because there are cases where the device's PM domain power-on/off behavior
must be conditional (e.g., in i2c_device_probe()), the patch introduces
PD_FLAG_ATTACH_POWER_ON and PD_FLAG_DETACH_POWER_OFF flags to be passed
to dev_pm_domain_attach().

Finally, dev_pm_domain_attach() and its users are updated to use the newly
introduced PD_FLAG_ATTACH_POWER_ON and PD_FLAG_DETACH_POWER_OFF macros.

This change is preparatory.

<content type='text'>
This code was originally going to use error pointers but we decided it
should return NULL instead.  The error pointer code in
__devm_auxiliary_device_create() was left over from the first version.
Update it to use NULL.  No callers have been merged yet, so that makes
this change simple and self contained.

Add helper functions to create a device on the auxiliary bus.

This is meant for fairly simple usage of the auxiliary bus, to avoid having
the same code repeated in the different drivers.

<title>drivers/base: Introduce device_match_t for device finding APIs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b45ed06f46737f8c2ee65698f4305409f2386674</id>
<content type='text'>
There are several drivers/base APIs for finding a specific device, and
they currently use the following good type for the @match parameter:
int (*match)(struct device *dev, const void *data)

Since these operations do not modify the caller-provided @*data, this
type is worthy of a dedicated typedef:
typedef int (*device_match_t)(struct device *dev, const void *data)

Advantages of using device_match_t:
 - Shorter API declarations and definitions
 - Prevent further APIs from using a bad type for @match

So introduce device_match_t and apply it to the existing
(bus|class|driver|auxiliary)_find_device() APIs.
