If something went wrong with creating a debugfs file/symlink/directory,
that value could be passed down into debugfs again as a parent dentry.
To make caller code simpler, just error out if this happens, and don't

This fixes a regression from the net subsystem:
After commit d52fdbb7
"smc91x: retrieve IRQ and trigger flags in a modern way"
a regression would appear on some legacy platforms such
as the ARM PXA Zylonite that specify IRQ resources like
this:

static struct resource r = {
       .start  = X,
       .end    = X,
       .flags  = IORESOURCE_IRQ | IORESOURCE_IRQ_HIGHEDGE,
};

The previous code would retrieve the resource and parse
the high edge setting in the SMC91x driver, a use pattern
that means every driver specifying an IRQ flag from a
static resource need to parse resource flags and apply
them at runtime.

As we switched the code to use IRQ descriptors to retrieve
the the trigger type like this:

  irqd_get_trigger_type(irq_get_irq_data(...));

the code would work for new platforms using e.g. device
tree as the backing irq descriptor would have its flags
properly set, whereas this kind of oldstyle static
resources at no point assign the trigger flags to the
corresponding IRQ descriptor.

To make the behaviour identical on modern device tree
and legacy static platform data platforms, modify
platform_get_irq() to assign the trigger flags to the
irq descriptor when a client looks up an IRQ from static
resources.

Currently probe deferral prints a message every time a device requests
deferral at info severity (which is displayed by default). This can have
an impact on system boot times with serial consoles and is generally quite
noisy.

Since subsystems and drivers should already be logging the specific reason
for probe deferral in order to aid users in understanding problems the
messages from the driver core should be redundant lower the severity of
the messages printed, cutting down on the volume of output on the console.

This does mean that if the drivers and subsystems aren't doing a good job
we get no output on the console by default. Ideally we'd be able to arrange
to print if nothing else printed, though that's a little fun. Even better
would be to come up with a mechanism that explicitly does dependencies so
we don't have to keep polling and erroring.

So I've been annoyed lately with having a bunch of devices such as i2c
eeproms (for use by VPDs, server world !) and other bits and pieces that
I want to be able to identify from userspace, and possibly provide
additional data about from FW.

Basically, it boils down to correlating the sysfs device with the OF
tree device node, so that user space can use device-tree info such as
additional "location" or "label" (or whatever else we can come up with)
propreties to identify a given device, or get some attributes of use
about it, etc...

Now, so far, we've done that in some subsystem in a fairly ad-hoc basis
using "devspec" properties. For example, PCI creates them if it can
correlate the probed device with a DT node. Some powerpc specific busses
do that too.

However, i2c doesn't and it would be nice to have something more generic
since technically any device can have a corresponding device tree node.

This patch adds an "of_node" symlink to devices that have a non-NULL
dev->of_node pointer, the patch is pretty trivial and seems to work just
fine for me.

On architectures that depend on DT for obtaining cache hierarcy, we need
to validate the device node for all the cache indices, failing to do so
might result in wrong information being exposed to the userspace.

This is quite possible on initial/incomplete versions of the device
trees. In such cases, it's better to bail out if all the required device
nodes are not present.

This patch adds checks for the validation of device node for all the
caches and doesn't initialise the cacheinfo if there's any error.

and limiting the scope of attributes to SYSFS_PREALLOC | 0664.

Up to now, is_visible can only be used to either remove visibility
of a file entirely or to add permissions, but not to reduce permissions.
This makes it impossible, for example, to use DEVICE_ATTR_RW to define
file attributes and reduce permissions to read-only.

This behavior is undesirable and unnecessarily complicates code which
needs to reduce permissions; instead of just returning the desired
permissions, it has to ensure that the permissions in the attribute
variable declaration only reflect the minimal permissions ever needed.

Change semantics of is_visible to only use the permissions returned
from it instead of oring the returned value with the hard-coded
permissions.
