Introduce a STM32 firewall framework that offers to firewall consumers
different firewall services such as the ability to check their access
rights against their firewall controller(s).

The STM32 firewall framework offers a generic API for STM32 firewall
controllers that is defined in their drivers to best fit the
specificity of each firewall.

There are various types of firewalls:
-Peripheral firewalls that filter accesses to peripherals
-Memory firewalls that filter accesses to memories or memory regions
-No type for undefined type of firewall

Coccinelle says that, due to breaking out of a
for_each_available_child_of_node() loop, a call to of_node_put()
is needed here


Hi Simon,

Thank you, I already sent a V3 correcting the patch ordering issue. I
will implement this for V4.

kernel-doc complains that name and the other fields of

I believe this is because a ':' is needed after the name of
the parameter (in this case 'name').

Likewise, elsewhere.


I will implement it in V4, thank you.

Yes, I will remove the type in V4.
