If dev_set_name() fails in pwrseq_device_register(), we jump to the
err_put_pwrseq label before initializing pwrseq-&gt;targets.
pwrseq_release() will try to iterate over targets unconditionally and
subsequently dereference an invalid pointer. Move the call to
dev_set_name() after the list head is initialized.

If memory allocation fails in pwrseq_unit_setup_deps(), pwrseq_unit_put()
is called to release the partially initialized unit. However, we've
never initialized unit-&gt;list and pwrseq_unit_release() will
unconditionally call list_del() on it. Initialize unit-&gt;list right after
allocating the unit struct.

instead of calling target-&gt;post_enable() which assumes the target was
successfully enabled.

This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc()
family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci

This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first
kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the
first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h
scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's
"--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped
to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control
flow indicator I could find.

Build tested allmodconfig on x86, arm64, arm, loongarch, mips, powerpc,
riscv, and s390 with no new warnings.

<title>power: sequencing: rename pwrseq_power_on/off() to pwrseq_enable/disable()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d51fc9d4cd6eb18ac82913d83ecf7bd8c85f71ee</id>
<content type='text'>
The way power sequencing works means that a call to pwrseq_power_on()
does not necessarily result in the pwrseq target being powered-on at
that time: it may have already been powered on before. Similarly: a call
to pwrseq_power_off() does not have to result in an actual powering off
of resources: there may still be other users that requested a power-on
before.

We will also introduce the concept of "non-controllable" pwrseq targets
soon which further increases the disconnect between the naming
convention and the actual semantics.

What consumers of pwrseq descriptors actually do is: they *vote* for a
powering on of a given target or retract that vote. These operations
could be called get/put in line with runtime PM but this could become
confusing since we already provide pwrseq_get/put() for a different
purpose. pwrseq_vote_on/off() also have been rejected as unusual in
the tree.

Change the name of the two functions to pwrseq_enable/disable() which
better reflects their purpose and semantics and also mirrors other
enable-counted resources like regulators and clocks. No functional change
intended.

If at any point users need to know *when* the exact power event happens,
we can provide that information in the form of a notifier.

<title>power: sequencing: fix ABBA deadlock in pwrseq_device_unregister()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2d5a7d406ecece5837af1e278ffbbf6c0315560a</id>
<content type='text'>
The pwrseq core takes three locks in consistent order everywhere:

  pwrseq_sem -&gt; pwrseq-&gt;rw_lock -&gt; pwrseq-&gt;state_lock

pwrseq_get() -&gt; pwrseq_match_device() takes pwrseq_sem for reading, then
rw_lock for reading. pwrseq_power_on()/pwrseq_power_off() take rw_lock
for reading and then state_lock.

pwrseq_device_unregister() is the only exception, it takes: state_lock,
then rw_lock for writing and finally pwrseq_sem for writing. This created
two potential ABBA deadlock situations that sashiko pointed out.

  - pwrseq_power_on/off() take rw_lock for reading then state_lock, while
    pwrseq_unregister() takes state_lock then rw_lock for writing
  - pwrseq_get() takes pwrseq_sem for reading then rw_lock for reading,
    while pwrseq_unregister() takes rw_lock for writing then pwrseq_sem
    for writing

Reorder the unregister path to taking pwrseq_sem for writing -&gt; rw_lock
for writing and drop the state_lock entirely. This is safe as
enable_count is only ever written under rw_lock held for read (via
pwrseq_unit_enable()/disable(), reached only from pwrseq_power_on/off()),
so holding rw_lock for writing already excludes every other writer and
reader and the active-users WARN() stays race-free without state_lock.

<title>pwrseq: core: fix use-after-free in pwrseq_debugfs_seq_next()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:257595adf9dac15ae1edd9d07753fbc576a7583d</id>
<content type='text'>
pwrseq_debugfs_seq_next() declares 'next' with __free(put_device),
which causes put_device() to be called on the returned pointer when
the variable goes out of scope.  This results in a use-after-free
since the seq_file framework receives a pointer whose reference has
already been dropped.

Simply removing __free(put_device) would fix the UAF but would leak
the reference acquired by bus_find_next_device(), as stop() only
calls up_read(&amp;pwrseq_sem) and never releases the device reference.

Fix this by making the reference counting consistent across all
seq_file callbacks, matching the standard pattern used by PCI and
SCSI:

- start(): use get_device() so it returns a referenced pointer.
- next(): explicitly put_device(curr) to release the previous
  device's reference (no NULL check needed - the seq_file framework
  only calls next() while the previous return was non-NULL).
- stop(): put_device(data) to release the last iterated device's
  reference, with a NULL guard since stop() may be called with NULL
  when start() returned NULL or next() reached end-of-sequence.

The consumer drivers can make use of the pwrseq device's 'dev' pointer to
query the pwrseq provider's DT node to check for existence of specific
properties.

Hence, add an API to return the pwrseq device's 'dev' pointer to consumers.

Note that since pwrseq_get() would've increased the pwrseq refcount, there
is no need to increase the refcount in this API again.

The debugfs summary currently shows the power sequencing device's name.
This is not really helpful since the device name is always "pwrseq.N".

Also print the parent device's name. This would likely be the device
node name from the device tree, something like "nvme-connector". This
would make it much easier for the developer to associate the summary
with a certain device.
