Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1.
Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving
which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes
in here are:
- platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases to
get here, finally!)
- Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core
interactions. It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver
in rust" type of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the
phy rust drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on
which others can start their work. There is still a long way to go
here before we have a multitude of rust drivers being added, but
it's a great first step.
- driver core const api changes. This reached across all bus types,
and there are some fix-ups for some not-common bus types that
linux-next and 0-day testing shook out. This work is being done to
help make the rust bindings more safe, as well as the C code, moving
toward the end-goal of allowing us to put driver structures into
read-only memory. We aren't there yet, but are getting closer.
- minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection
- arch_topology minor changes
- other minor driver core cleanups
All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
reported problems.

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be
changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one
step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct
device_driver in read-only memory.
Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified
to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of()
calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *.
For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in
the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at
this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.)
That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their
struct device * in read-only-memory.

Since commit aed65af1cc ("drivers: make device_type const"), the driver
core can properly handle constant struct device_type. Move the
peci_controller_type and peci_device_type variables to be constant
structures as well, placing it into read-only memory which can not be
modified at runtime.

Add support for PECI device drivers, which unlike PECI controller
drivers are actually able to provide functionalities to userspace.
Also, extend peci_request API to allow querying more details about PECI
device (e.g. model/family), that's going to be used to find a compatible
peci_driver.

PECI devices may not be discoverable at the time when PECI controller is
being added (e.g. BMC can boot up when the Host system is still in S5).
Since we currently don't have the capabilities to figure out the Host
system state inside the PECI subsystem itself, we have to rely on
userspace to do it for us.
In the future, PECI subsystem may be expanded with mechanisms that allow
us to avoid depending on userspace interaction (e.g. CPU presence could
be detected using GPIO, and the information on whether it's discoverable
could be obtained over IPMI).
Unfortunately, those methods may ultimately not be available (support
will vary from platform to platform), which means that we still need
platform independent method triggered by userspace.

Since PECI devices are discoverable, we can dynamically detect devices
that are actually available in the system.
This change complements the earlier implementation by rescanning PECI
bus to detect available devices. For this purpose, it also introduces the
minimal API for PECI requests.

Intel processors provide access for various services designed to support
processor and DRAM thermal management, platform manageability and
processor interface tuning and diagnostics.
Those services are available via the Platform Environment Control
Interface (PECI) that provides a communication channel between the
processor and the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) or other
platform management device.
This change introduces PECI subsystem by adding the initial core module
and API for controller drivers.
