[PATCH v3 07/11] gpio: Add revocable provider handle for struct gpio_chip
Posted by Tzung-Bi Shih 1 month, 2 weeks ago
The underlying chip can be removed asynchronously.  `gdev->srcu` is used
to ensure the synchronization before accessing `gdev->chip`.

Revocable encapsulates the details.  Add revocable provider handle for
the corresponding struct gpio_chip in struct gpio_device so that it can
start to hide the synchronization details.

v3:
- Change revocable API usages accordingly.

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260203061059.975605-8-tzungbi@kernel.org
- Change usages accordingly after applying
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260129143733.45618-2-tzungbi@kernel.org.
  - Add __rcu for `chip_rp`.
  - Pass pointer of pointer to revocable_provider_revoke().
- Rebase accordingly after applying
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260203060210.972243-1-tzungbi@kernel.org.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260116081036.352286-13-tzungbi@kernel.org

I like it much better than with __rcu but see my comment under the
revocable series: is there any reason why we can't do:

struct revocable chip_rp;

?
