We currently have only devm_ macro fakery that leaks resources on device
removal. This is flagged by static analysis and requires modifications
to ported kernel code that uses devres-managed actions.

Implement destructor support into talloc and use it implement a subset
of the Linux devm functionality. 

How devm_ allocated device resources are freed is a bit different from
Linux:

- Runtime unbounding of a device driver or removal of a device
  frees _all_ device resources

- Boot time invocation of the remove callback is followed by running
  _only_ the destructors. Allocations are leaked as the kernel will
  reclaim all memory anyway.

Ahmad Fatoum (19):
  commands: devunbind: refuse to unbind devices that were never bound
  commands: devunbind: don't poison the active list entry
  talloc: remove unused talloc_steal() and talloc_steal_children()
  talloc: free children in a loop
  talloc: add support for destructors
  test: self: talloc: add destructor tests
  talloc: add talloc_run_destructors()
  mfd: pca9450: don't free device-managed memory in probe error path
  video: backlight-pwm: allocate brightness levels with devm_kcalloc
  driver: implement devm_ allocation helpers on top of talloc
  devres: Provide kmalloc_obj*-style API for devm_kmalloc
  memory: atmel-ebi: use generic devm_kzalloc()
  driver: add devm_add_action()
  test: self: add devm_ selftest
  driver: add devm_request_mem_resource()
  driver: make dev_platform_ioremap_resource() device-managed
  treewide: rename dev_platform_ioremap_resource() to
    devm_platform_ioremap_resource()
  driver: make dev_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource() device-managed
  serial: stm32: request the registers with devm_request_mem_resource()
