PATCH RESEND 1/2 arm-smmu-qcom: Ensure the qcom_scm driver has finished probing

Robin Murphy pointed out that if the arm-smmu driver probes before the qcom_scm driver, we may call qcom_scm_qsmmu500_wait_safe_toggle() before the __scm is initialized.

Now, getting this to happen is a bit contrived, as in my efforts it required enabling asynchronous probing for both drivers, moving the firmware dts node to the end of the dtsi file, as well as forcing a long delay in the qcom_scm_probe function.

With those tweaks we ran into the following crash:

This allows the driver to try to probe again later after qcom_scm has finished probing.

PATCH RESEND 2/2 iommu: Avoid crash if iommu_group is null

In the case above, the arm-smmu driver fails to probe with EPROBE_DEFER, and I'm guessing I'm guessing that causes iommu_group_add_device() to fail and sets the dev->iommu_group = NULL, then somehow we hit iommu_group_remove_device() and trip over the null value? I'm not really sure...

Anyway, adding the null check seems to avoid the issue and the system boots fine after the arm-smmu driver later reprobed.

Feedback or better ideas for a solution would be appreciated!

I think the real issue is that we shouldn't even be here. If the device was still waiting for an IOMMU when it got torn down, then dev->iommu would be non-NULL due to a fwspec being allocated, but it's possible that none of the other setup would have been done, so iommu_release_device() shouldn't be blindly trying to undo it. It happens that iommu_device_unlink() and arm_smmu_release_device() still have some left-over tolerance for invalid inputs, but even if we do make iommu_group_remove_device() similarly tolerant of invalid input, the subsequent module_put() could still be unbalanced if the fwspec and deferral came from of_iommu_configure() without iommu_probe_device() even being called. Therefore I think this needs to be fundamentally fixed by making iommu_release_device() better at handling partially-configured devices in the first place.

Robin.

This allows the driver to try to probe again later after qcom_scm has finished probing.

As well as strict correctness, the other motivation here was that qcom_scm_is_available() should be the place to add the "is the module even loaded yet?" dance to iron out the awkward config dependencies in future.

Applied only the first patch to arm64 (for-next/iommu/fixes), thanks!
