Add a register map that is a simple array of memory, for use in
KUnit testing of the framework. This is not exposed in regmap.h
since I can't think of a non-test use case, it is purely for use
internally. To facilitate testing we track if registers have been
read or written to.

The compressed register cache support has assumptions that make it hard to
cover in testing, mainly that it requires raw registers defaults be
provided. Rather than either address these assumptions or leave it untested
by the forthcoming KUnit tests let's remove it, the use case is quite thin
and there are no current users.

After entering 6.3-rc1 the LLC cacheinfo is not exported on our ACPI
based arm64 server. This is because the LLC cacheinfo is partly reset
when secondary CPUs boot up. On arm64 the primary cpu will allocate
and setup cacheinfo:
init_cpu_topology()
for_each_possible_cpu()
fetch_cache_info() // Allocate cacheinfo and init levels
detect_cache_attributes()
cache_shared_cpu_map_setup()
if (!last_level_cache_is_valid()) // not valid, setup LLC
cache_setup_properties() // setup LLC
On secondary CPU boot up:
detect_cache_attributes()
populate_cache_leaves()
get_cache_type() // Get cache type from clidr_el1,
// for LLC type=CACHE_TYPE_NOCACHE
cache_shared_cpu_map_setup()
if (!last_level_cache_is_valid()) // Valid and won't go to this branch,
// leave LLC's type=CACHE_TYPE_NOCACHE
The last_level_cache_is_valid() use cacheinfo->{attributes, fw_token} to
test it's valid or not, but populate_cache_leaves() will only reset
LLC's type, so we won't try to re-setup LLC's type and leave it
CACHE_TYPE_NOCACHE and won't export it through sysfs.
This patch tries to fix this by not re-populating the cache leaves if
the LLC is valid.

Now that class_to_subsys() can be used to get access to the internal
class private pointer, convert the remaining few places in class.c that
were accessing the pointer directly to use class_to_subsys() instead.
By doing this, the need for class_get() and class_put() goes away as no
one actually tries to increment the class structures anymore, only the
internal dynamic one.

Much like what was done in commit 273afac615ad ("driver core: bus:
implement bus_get/put() without the private pointer"), it is time to
move the driver core away from using the internal private pointer in
struct class in order to enable it to be always a constant and be placed
in read-only memory in the future.
First step in doing this is to create a helper function that turns a
'struct class' into 'struct subsys_private' called class_to_subsys().
class_to_subsys() walks the list of registered busses in the system and
finds the matching one based on the pointer to the class itself. As
this is a short list, and this function is not on any fast path, it
should not be noticable.
Implement class_get() and class_put() using this new helper function.

struct class should never be modified in a sysfs callback as there is
nothing in the structure to modify, and frankly, the structure is almost
never used in a sysfs callback, so mark it as constant to allow struct
class to be moved to read-only memory.
While we are touching all class sysfs callbacks also mark the attribute
as constant as it can not be modified. The bonding code still uses this
structure so it can not be removed from the function callbacks.

Register addresses passed to regmap operations can be offset with

If the file is written to and sync_state() hasn't been called for the
device yet, then call sync_state() for the device independent of the
state of its consumers.
This is useful for supplier devices that have one or more consumers that
don't have a driver but the consumers are in a state that don't use the
resources supplied by the supplier device.
This gives finer grained control than using the
fw_devlink.sync_state=timeout kernel commandline parameter.

When all devices that could probe have finished probing (based on
deferred_probe_timeout configuration or late_initcall() when
!CONFIG_MODULES), this parameter controls what to do with devices that
haven't yet received their sync_state() calls.
fw_devlink.sync_state=strict is the default and the driver core will
continue waiting on all consumers of a device to probe successfully
before sync_state() is called for the device. This is the default
behavior since calling sync_state() on a device when all its consumers
haven't probed could make some systems unusable/unstable. When this
option is selected, we also print the list of devices that haven't had
sync_state() called on them by the time all devices the could probe have
finished probing.
fw_devlink.sync_state=timeout will cause the driver core to give up
waiting on consumers and call sync_state() on any devices that haven't
yet received their sync_state() calls. This option is provided for
systems that won't become unusable/unstable as they might be able to
save power (depends on state of hardware before kernel starts) if all
devices get their sync_state().

Merge series from William Breathitt Gray <william.gray@linaro.org>:
There are devices which have interrupt support with mask and ack
registers but no status register. Add a flag which lets us support
them, we just assume that all the interrupts fired.
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED was added in commit 88a22c985e35
("CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED") in 2006 to allow systems with older versions
of some tools (i.e. Fedora 3's version of udev) to boot properly. Four
years later, in 2010, the option was attempted to be removed as most of
userspace should have been fixed up properly by then, but some kernel
developers clung to those old systems and refused to update, so we added
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 in commit e52eec13cd6b ("SYSFS: Allow boot
time switching between deprecated and modern sysfs layout") to allow
them to continue to boot properly, and we allowed a boot time parameter
to be used to switch back to the old format if needed.
Over time, the logic that was covered under these config options was
slowly removed from individual driver subsystems successfully, removed,
and the only thing that is now left in the kernel are some changes in
the block layer's representation in sysfs where real directories are
used instead of symlinks like normal.
Because the original changes were done to userspace tools in 2006, and
all distros that use those tools are long end-of-life, and older
non-udev-based systems do not care about the block layer's sysfs
representation, it is time to finally remove this old logic and the
config entries from the kernel.
