<content type='text'>
Commit e647b532275b ("ACPI: Add early device probing infrastructure")
introduced code that allows inserting driver specific
struct acpi_probe_entry probe entries into ACPI linker sections
(one per-subsystem, eg irqchip, clocksource) that are then walked
to retrieve the data and function hooks required to probe the
respective kernel components.

Probing for all entries in a section is triggered through
the __acpi_probe_device_table() function, that in turn, according
to the table ID a given probe entry reports parses the table
with the function retrieved from the respective section structures
(ie struct acpi_probe_entry). Owing to the current ACPI table
parsing implementation, the __acpi_probe_device_table() function
has to share global variables with the acpi_match_madt() function, so
in order to guarantee mutual exclusion locking is required
between the two functions.

Current kernel code implements the locking through the acpi_probe_lock
spinlock; this has the side effect of requiring all code called
within the lock (ie struct acpi_probe_entry.probe_{table/subtbl} hooks)
not to sleep.

However, kernel subsystems that make use of the early probing
infrastructure are relying on kernel APIs that may sleep (eg
irq_domain_alloc_fwnode(), among others) in the function calls
pointed at by struct acpi_probe_entry.{probe_table/subtbl} entries
(eg gic_v2_acpi_init()), which is a bug.

Since __acpi_probe_device_table() is called from context
that is allowed to sleep the acpi_probe_lock spinlock can be replaced
with a mutex; this fixes the issue whilst still guaranteeing
mutual exclusion.

<content type='text'>
Add support for ACPI reconfiguration notifiers to allow subsystems
to react to changes in the ACPI tables that happen after the initial
enumeration. This is similar with the way dynamic device tree
notifications work.

The reconfigure notifications supported for now are device add and
device remove.

Since ACPICA allows only one table notification handler, this patch
makes the table notifier function generic and moves it out of the
sysfs specific code.

<title>ACPI / scan: fix enumeration (visited) flags for bus rescans</title>

<id>urn:sha1:10c7e20b2ff3caa5a8c0e7d60aef5a9c86e60ce8</id>
<content type='text'>
If the ACPI tables change as a result of a dinamically loaded table
and a bus rescan is required the enumeration/visited flag are not
consistent.

I2C/SPI are not directly enumerated in acpi_bus_attach(), however
the visited flag is set. This makes it impossible to check if an
ACPI device has already been enumerated by the I2C and SPI
subsystems. To fix this issue we only set the visited flags if
the device is not I2C or SPI.

With this change we also need to remove setting visited to false
from acpi_bus_attach(), otherwise if we rescan already enumerated
I2C/SPI devices we try to re-enumerate them.

Note that I2C/SPI devices can be enumerated either via a scan handler
(when using PRP0001) or via regular device_attach(). In either case
the flow goes through acpi_default_enumeration() which makes it the
ideal place to mark the ACPI device as enumerated.

ACPI 6.0 introduces a new table STAO to list the devices which are used
by Xen and can't be used by Dom0. On Xen virtual platforms, the physical
UART is used by Xen. So here it hides UART from Dom0.

On ARM64 some devices use the AMBA device and not the platform bus for
probing so add support for this. Uses a dummy clock for apb_pclk as ACPI
does not have a suitable clock representation and to keep the core
AMBA bus code unchanged between probing methods.

<content type='text'>
There's an idiom in use by 7 Linux drivers to detect the presence of a
particular ACPI HID by walking the namespace with acpi_get_devices().
The callback passed to acpi_get_devices() is mostly identical across
the drivers, leading to lots of duplicate code.

Add acpi_dev_present(), the ACPI equivalent to pci_dev_present(),
allowing us to deduplicate all that boilerplate in the drivers.

acpi_device_add() allocates and adds an element to acpi_bus_id_list
(or increments the instance count if the device's HID is already
present in the list), but the element is never deleted from the list
nor freed. Fix it.

<title>ACPI / scan: set status to 0 if _STA failed</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e399037e06beec6d190a302ff5e4fee4aae77c50</id>
<content type='text'>
Some ACPI node's _STA will touch operation region field, since the
evaluation of _STA in acpi_bus_type_and_status is very early, the
operation region handler is not ready yet. Instead of fail that function
and not creating the acpi_device node consequently, set status to 0 so
that later when the driver for that device is probing, it can find
the acpi_device node and proceed normally. And at that time, the
handler for the operation region is ready and its _STA evaluation will
succeed, its present status can be checked there.

Even there will be no driver using this node later, it doesn't seem
hurt to have one more acpi_device node created with status set to 0.

This happens on Microsoft Surface 3, where the SPI device node NTRG's
_STA touches GPIO fields and the SPI core driver will only enumerate SPI
devices from ACPI if the acpi_device node is 1: created; 2: _STA
indicates it's present.

Note that due to another problem in SPI driver, for NTRG to be actually
enumerated, some changes have to be made in the SPI layer, which is
addressed by Mika(not send out yet):
