New module which registers its memory allocation and free APIs to the
sram_dynamic module, which would create a device of struct sram_device
type to act as an interface for user level applications to access the
backend hardware device, fsl_85xx_cache_sram, which is drived by the
FSL_85XX_CACHE_SRAM module.

We shouldn't add more stuff in arch/powerpc/sysdev/

Either it is dedicated to 85xx, and it should go into
arch/powerpc/platform/85xx/ , or it is common to several
platforms/architectures and should be moved to drivers/soc/fsl/


Sure, actually I tried to find a better place, but did not recognize
the driver/soc. Thanks, and I will put fsl_85xx_sram_uapi there.

Is SRAM_DYNAMIC usefull on its own, without a driver like this one ? Is
that worth allowing tiny selection of both drivers ? Shouldn't one of
them imply the other one ?

Truely the module like this is the top level selection, and SRAM_DYNAMIC
should be selected by any caller modules. As SRAM_DYNAMIC may be used by
other drivers(in the future, but currently only us here), I think make it
seleted by this is better? (show below)

And then in patch 4, I'm not sure it is worth to keep SRAM_DYNAMIC as user selectable.

'extern' keywork is meaningless here, remove it.


I will remove it in patch v4.

This function is not worth the mess of an #ifdef in a .c file.
cache_sram is already globaly visible, so this function should go in
fsl_85xx_cache_ctlr.h as a 'static inline'


Yes, and I will change it like this, with an extern of cache_sram.

Can we avoid the #ifdef in .c file ? (see
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/coding-style.html#conditional-compilation)


Definitely, and I will change it as below in patch v4:

+ if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_FSL_85XX_SRAM_UAPI))
+ cache_sram->dev = &dev->dev;
+

This will work only if is defined all the time in the .h regardless of CONFIG_FSL_85XX_SRAM_UAPI. Otherwise you should have something like that in the .h, that you call all the time from the .c:

#ifdef CONFIG_FSL_85XX_SRAM_UAPI
static inline void set_cache_sram_dev(struct mpc85xx_cache_sram *sram, struct device *dev)
{
sram->dev = dev;
}
#else
static inline void set_cache_sram_dev(struct mpc85xx_cache_sram *sram, struct device *dev) { }
#endif


dev_info(&dev->dev, "[base:0x%llx, size:0x%x] configured and loaded\n",

Thanks, for your suggestions, as these are minor modifications,
I will send a new patch series v4 soon.

Regards,
Wenhu
