[PATCH 2/6] driver core: Reorder actions in __device_links_no_driver()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Thu Jan 24 2019 - 06:25:39 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

All links to suppliers have to be either "available" or in the
"supplier unbind in progress" state after __device_links_no_driver()
and the kref_put() may not actually delete them, so change the state
of each link in __device_links_no_driver() before attempting to drop
it.

While at it, update the kernedoc comment of __device_links_no_driver()
to reflect what happens more accurately.

Fixes: ead18c23c263 ("driver core: Introduce device links reference counting")
