strict pin controller returns -EINVAL in case of pin request which
is already claimed by somebody else.
Following is the sequence of calling pin_request() from
pinctrl_bind_pins():-
pinctrl_bind_pins()->pinctrl_select_state()->pinmux_enable_setting()->
pin_request()
But pinctrl_bind_pins() only returns -EPROBE_DEFER which makes device
driver probe successful even if the pin request is rejected by the pin
controller subsystem.
This commit modifies pinctrl_bind_pins() to return error if the pin is
rejected by pin control subsystem.

For pinctrl the "default" state is applied to pins before the driver's
probe function is called. This is normally a sensible thing to do,
but in some cases can cause problems. That's because the pins will
change state before the driver is given a chance to program how those
pins should behave.
As an example you might have a regulator that is controlled by a PWM
(output high = high voltage, output low = low voltage). The firmware
might leave this pin as driven high. If we allow the driver core to
reconfigure this pin as a PWM pin before the PWM's probe function runs
then you might end up running at too low of a voltage while we probe.
Let's introudce a new "init" state. If this is defined we'll set
pinctrl to this state before probe and then "default" after probe
(unless the driver explicitly changed states already).
An alternative idea that was thought of was to use the pre-existing
"sleep" or "idle" states and add a boolean property that we should
start in that mode. This was not done because the "init" state is
needed for correctness and those other states are only present (and
only transitioned in to and out of) when (optional) power management
is enabled.
Changes in v3:
- Moved declarations to pinctrl/devinfo.h
- Fixed author/SoB
Changes in v2:
- Added comment to pinctrl_init_done() as per Linus W.

If a device have sleep and idle states in addition to the
default state, look up these in the core and stash them in
the pinctrl state container.
Add accessor functions for pinctrl consumers to put the pins
into "default", "sleep" and "idle" states passing nothing but
the struct device * affected.
Solution suggested by Kevin Hilman, Mark Brown and Dmitry
Torokhov in response to a patch series from Hebbar
Gururaja.

This makes the device core auto-grab the pinctrl handle and set
the "default" (PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT) state for every device
that is present in the device model right before probe. This will
account for the lion's share of embedded silicon devcies.
A modification of the semantics for pinctrl_get() is also done:
previously if the pinctrl handle for a certain device was already
taken, the pinctrl core would return an error. Now, since the
core may have already default-grabbed the handle and set its
state to "default", if the handle was already taken, this will
be disregarded and the located, previously instanitated handle
will be returned to the caller.
This way all code in drivers explicitly requesting their pinctrl
handlers will still be functional, and drivers that want to
explicitly retrieve and switch their handles can still do that.
But if the desired functionality is just boilerplate of this
type in the probe() function:
struct pinctrl *p;
p = devm_pinctrl_get_select_default(&dev);
if (IS_ERR(p)) {
if (PTR_ERR(p) == -EPROBE_DEFER)
return -EPROBE_DEFER;
dev_warn(&dev, "no pinctrl handle\n");
}
The discussion began with the addition of such boilerplate
to the omap4 keypad driver:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-input&m=135091157719300&w=2
A previous approach using notifiers was discussed:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=135263661110528&w=2
This failed because it could not handle deferred probes.
This patch alone does not solve the entire dilemma faced:
whether code should be distributed into the drivers or
if it should be centralized to e.g. a PM domain. But it
solves the immediate issue of the addition of boilerplate
to a lot of drivers that just want to grab the default
state. As mentioned, they can later explicitly retrieve
the handle and set different states, and this could as
well be done by e.g. PM domains as it is only related
to a certain struct device * pointer.
ChangeLog v4->v5 (Stephen):
- Simplified the devicecore grab code.
- Deleted a piece of documentation recommending that pins
be mapped to a device rather than hogged.
ChangeLog v3->v4 (Linus):
- Drop overzealous NULL checks.
- Move kref initialization to pinctrl_create().
- Seeking Tested-by from Stephen Warren so we do not disturb
the Tegra platform.
- Seeking ACK on this from Greg (and others who like it) so I
can merge it through the pinctrl subsystem.
ChangeLog v2->v3 (Linus):
- Abstain from using IS_ERR_OR_NULL() in the driver core,
Russell recently sent a patch to remove it. Handle the
NULL case explicitly even though it's a bogus case.
- Make sure we handle probe deferral correctly in the device
core file. devm_kfree() the container on error so we don't
waste memory for devices without pinctrl handles.
- Introduce reference counting into the pinctrl core using
<linux/kref.h> so that we don't release pinctrl handles
that have been obtained for two or more places.
ChangeLog v1->v2 (Linus):
- Only store a pointer in the device struct, and only allocate
this if it's really used by the device.
