If device_link_add() is called for a consumer/supplier pair with an existing device link between them and the existing link's type is not in agreement with the flags passed to that function by its caller, NULL will be returned. That is seriously inconvenient, because it forces the callers of device_link_add() to worry about what others may or may not do even if that is not relevant to them for any other reasons. It turns out, however, that this limitation can be made go away relatively easily. The underlying observation is that if DL_FLAG_STATELESS has been passed to device_link_add() in flags for the given consumer/supplier pair at least once, calling either device_link_del() or device_link_remove() to release the link returned by it should work, but there are no other requirements associated with that flag. In turn, if at least one of the callers of device_link_add() for the given consumer/supplier pair has not passed DL_FLAG_STATELESS to it in flags, the driver core should track the status of the link and act on it as appropriate (ie. the link should be treated as "managed"). This means that DL_FLAG_STATELESS needs to be set for managed device links and it should be valid to call device_link_del() or device_link_remove() to drop references to them in certain sutiations. To allow that to happen, introduce a new (internal) device link flag called DL_FLAG_MANAGED and make device_link_add() set it automatically whenever DL_FLAG_STATELESS is not passed to it. Also make it take additional references to existing device links that were previously stateless (that is, with DL_FLAG_STATELESS set and DL_FLAG_MANAGED unset) and will need to be managed going forward and initialize their status (which has been DL_STATE_NONE so far). Accordingly, when a managed device link is dropped automatically by the driver core, make it clear DL_FLAG_MANAGED, reset the link's status back to DL_STATE_NONE and drop the reference to it associated with DL_FLAG_MANAGED instead of just deleting it right away (to allow it to stay around in case it still needs to be released explicitly by someone). With that, since setting DL_FLAG_STATELESS doesn't mean that the device link in question is not managed any more, replace all of the status-tracking checks against DL_FLAG_STATELESS with analogous checks against DL_FLAG_MANAGED and update the documentation to reflect these changes. While at it, make device_link_add() reject flags that it does not recognize, including DL_FLAG_MANAGED. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
