This driver's remove path calls cancel_delayed_work(). However, that function does not wait until the work function finishes. This could mean that the work function is still running after the driver's remove function has finished, which would result in a use-after-free. Fix by calling cancel_delayed_work_sync(), which ensures that that the work is properly cancelled, no longer running, and unable to re-schedule itself. This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Samuel Holland authored
The AC power supply input can be used as a wakeup source. Hook up the ACIN_PLUGIN IRQ to trigger wakeup based on userspace configuration. To do this, we must remember the list of IRQs for the life of the device. To know how much space to allocate for the flexible array member, we switch from using a NULL sentinel to using an array length. Because we now depend on the specific order of the IRQs (we assume ACIN_PLUGIN is first and always present), failing to acquire an IRQ during probe must be a fatal error. To avoid spuriously waking up the system when the AC power supply is not configured as a wakeup source, we must explicitly disable all non- wake IRQs during system suspend. This is because the SoC's NMI input is shared among all IRQs on the AXP PMIC. Due to the use of regmap-irq, the individual IRQs within the PMIC are nested threaded interrupts, and are therefore not automatically disabled during system suspend. The upshot is that if any other device within the MFD (such as the power key) is an enabled wakeup source, all enabled IRQs within the PMIC will cause wakeup. We still need to call enable_irq_wake() when we *do* want wakeup, in case those other wakeup sources on the PMIC are all disabled.

AXP803/AXP813 have a flag that enables/disables the AC power supply input. This flag does not affect the status bits in PWR_INPUT_STATUS. Its effect can be verified by checking the battery charge/discharge state (bit 2 of PWR_INPUT_STATUS), or by examining the current draw on the AC input. Take this flag into account when getting the ONLINE property of the AC input, on PMICs where this flag is present.

When a device has no support to get the charger number of ports, it doesn't have to result in a dev_err(), print saying "Could not get charger port count" using a dev_info() would suffice. In such case, the dev_info() message is already printed but the dev_err() is annoying, specially, on those devices that doesn't support the command. So remove the dev_err().

The ADC in the JZ4740 can work either in high-precision mode with a 2.5V range, or in low-precision mode with a 7.5V range. The code in place in this driver will select the proper scale according to the maximum voltage of the battery. The JZ4770 however only has one mode, with a 6.6V range. If only one scale is available, there's no need to change it (and nothing to change it to), and trying to do so will fail with -EINVAL.

We can trust the VFS to have checked file->f_mode before writing to the page cache.
