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

BACKGROUND
==========
When multiple work items are queued to a workqueue, their execution order
doesn't match the queueing order. They may get executed in any order and
simultaneously. When fully serialized execution - one by one in the queueing
order - is needed, an ordered workqueue should be used which can be created
with alloc_ordered_workqueue().
However, alloc_ordered_workqueue() was a later addition. Before it, an
ordered workqueue could be obtained by creating an UNBOUND workqueue with
@max_active==1. This originally was an implementation side-effect which was
broken by 4c16bd327c ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be
ordered"). Because there were users that depended on the ordered execution,
5c0338c687 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered")
made workqueue allocation path to implicitly promote UNBOUND workqueues w/
@max_active==1 to ordered workqueues.
While this has worked okay, overloading the UNBOUND allocation interface
this way creates other issues. It's difficult to tell whether a given
workqueue actually needs to be ordered and users that legitimately want a
min concurrency level wq unexpectedly gets an ordered one instead. With
planned UNBOUND workqueue updates to improve execution locality and more
prevalence of chiplet designs which can benefit from such improvements, this
isn't a state we wanna be in forever.
This patch series audits all callsites that create an UNBOUND workqueue w/
@max_active==1 and converts them to alloc_ordered_workqueue() as necessary.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
================
The conversions are from
alloc_workqueue(WQ_UNBOUND | flags, 1, args..)
to
alloc_ordered_workqueue(flags, args...)
which don't cause any functional changes. If you know that fully ordered
execution is not ncessary, please let me know. I'll drop the conversion and
instead add a comment noting the fact to reduce confusion while conversion
is in progress.
If you aren't fully sure, it's completely fine to let the conversion
through. The behavior will stay exactly the same and we can always
reconsider later.
As there are follow-up workqueue core changes, I'd really appreciate if the
patch can be routed through the workqueue tree w/ your acks. Thanks.

strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool().
However, the latter is more used within the kernel.
In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to
the other function name.
While at it, include the corresponding header file (<linux/kstrtox.h>)

Commit ee2f2074fd ("greybus: svc: reconfig APBridgeA-Switch link to
handle required load") added a temporary hack which reconfigures the
link at HELLO by abusing the deferred request processing mechanism.
Restructure the HELLO request processing so that the link-configuration
work is queued before creating the debugfs files and add a comment
explaining why it's there.

While currently safe, it is unnecessary (and confusing) to try to
destroy the watchdog when watchdog creation fails.
Change the corresponding error path to only deregister the svc.

The Greybus core code has been stable for a long time, and has been
shipping for many years in millions of phones. With the advent of a
recent Google Summer of Code project, and a number of new devices in the
works from various companies, it is time to get the core greybus code
out of staging as it really is going to be with us for a while.
