      of: Transactional DT support. · 201c910b
      Pantelis Antoniou authored 
      Introducing DT transactional support.

A DT transaction is a method which allows one to apply changes
in the live tree, in such a way that either the full set of changes
take effect, or the state of the tree can be rolled-back to the
state it was before it was attempted. An applied transaction
can be rolled-back at any time.

      of: Reorder device tree changes and notifiers · 259092a3
      Grant Likely authored 
      Currently, devicetree reconfig notifiers get emitted before the change
is applied to the tree, but that behaviour is problematic if the
receiver wants the determine the new state of the tree. The current
users don't care, but the changeset code to follow will be making
multiple changes at once. Reorder notifiers to get emitted after the
change has been applied to the tree so that callbacks see the new tree
state.

At the same time, fixup the existing callbacks to expect the new order.
There are a few callbacks that compare the old and new values of a
changed property. Put both property pointers into the of_prop_reconfig
structure.

The current notifiers also allow the notifier callback to fail and
cancel the change to the tree, but that feature isn't actually used.
It really isn't valid to ignore a tree modification provided by firmware
anyway, so remove the ability to cancel a change to the tree.

      of: Move dynamic node fixups out of powerpc and into common code · a25095d4
      Grant Likely authored 
      PowerPC does an odd thing with dynamic nodes. It uses a notifier to
catch new node additions and set some of the values like name and type.
This makes no sense since that same code can be put directly into
of_attach_node(). Besides, all dynamic node users need this, not just
powerpc. Fix this problem by moving the logic out of arch/powerpc and
into drivers/of/dynamic.c.

It is also important to remove this notifier because we want to move the
firing of notifiers from before the tree is modified to after so that
the receiver gets a consistent view of the tree, but that is
incompatible with notifiers that modify the node.

      of: Make sure attached nodes don't carry along extra children · 6162dbe4
      Grant Likely authored 
      The child pointer does not get cleared when attaching new nodes which
could cause the tree to be inconsistent. Clear the child pointer in
__of_attach_node() to be absolutely sure that the structure remains in a
consistent layout.

      of: Make devicetree sysfs update functions consistent. · 8a2b22a2
      Grant Likely authored 
      All of the DT modification functions are split into two parts, the first
part manipulates the DT data structure, and the second part updates
sysfs, but the code isn't very consistent about how the second half is
called. They don't all enforce the same rules about when it is valid to
update sysfs, and there isn't any clarity on locking.

The transactional DT modification feature that is coming also needs
access to these functions so that it can perform all the structure
changes together, and then all the sysfs updates as a second stage
instead of doing each one at a time.

Fix up the second have by creating a separate __of_*_sysfs() function
for each of the helpers. The new functions have consistent naming (ie.
of_node_add() becomes __of_attach_node_sysfs()) and all of them now
defer if of_init hasn't been called yet.

Callers of the new functions must hold the of_mutex to ensure there are
no race conditions with of_init(). The mutex ensures that there will
only ever be one writer to the tree at any given time. There can still
be any number of readers and the raw_spin_lock is still used to make
sure access to the data structure is still consistent.

Finally, put the function prototypes into of_private.h so they are
accessible to the transaction code.

      of: Create unlocked versions of node and property add/remove functions · d8c50088
      Pantelis Antoniou authored 
      The DT overlay code will need to manipulate nodes and properties while
already holding the devicetree lock, or on nodes that are not yet
attached to the tree, but the current helper functions don't allow that.
Extract the core behaviour from the accessors and create the following
unlocked variants.

The unlocked variants require either the lock to already be held or for
the nodes to be detached from the tree. Changes to live nodes will not
get updated in sysfs, so the caller must arrange for housekeeping to
take place after dropping the lock.

The new functions are: __of_add_property(), __of_remove_property(),
__of_update_property(), __of_attach_node() and __of_detach_node().
