[PATCH v6 0/9] Remove .notify callback in acpi_device_ops

From: Michal Wilczynski
Date: Fri Jun 30 2023 - 14:34:09 EST


*** IMPORTANT ***
This is part 1 - only drivers in acpi directory to ease up review
process. Rest of the drivers will be handled in separate patchsets.

Currently drivers support ACPI event handlers by defining .notify
callback in acpi_device_ops. This solution is suboptimal as event
handler installer installs intermediary function acpi_notify_device as a
handler in every driver. Also this approach requires extra variable
'flags' for specifying event types that the driver want to subscribe to.
Additionally this is a pre-work required to align acpi_driver with
platform_driver and eventually replace acpi_driver with platform_driver.

Remove .notify callback from the acpi_device_ops. Replace it with each
driver installing and removing it's event handlers.

This is part 1 - only drivers in acpi directory to ease up review
process.

v6:
- fixed unnecessary RCT in all drivers, as it's not a purpose of
this patch series
- changed error label names to simplify them
- dropped commit that remove a comma
- squashed commit moving code for nfit
- improved nfit driver to use devm instead of .remove()
- re-based as Rafael changes [1] are merged already

v5:
- rebased on top of Rafael changes [1], they're not merged yet
- fixed rollback in multiple drivers so they don't leak resources on
failure
- made this part 1, meaning only drivers in acpi directory, rest of
the drivers will be handled in separate patchsets to ease up review

v4:
- added one commit for previously missed driver sony-laptop,
refactored return statements, added NULL check for event installer
v3:
- lkp still reported some failures for eeepc, fujitsu and
toshiba_bluetooth, fix those
v2:
- fix compilation errors for drivers
