  driver core: Skip unnecessary work when device doesn't have sync_state() (2020-03-04 13:46:03 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Driver core / debugfs fixes for 5.6-rc5

Here are 4 small driver core / debugfs patches for 5.6-rc3

They are:
	- debugfs api cleanup now that all callers for
	  debugfs_create_regset32() have been fixed up.  This was
	  waiting until after the -rc1 merge as these fixes came in
	  through different trees
	- driver core sync state fixes based on reports of minor issues
	  found in the feature

All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

----------------------------------------------------------------
Greg Kroah-Hartman (1):
      debugfs: remove return value of debugfs_create_regset32()

Saravana Kannan (3):
      driver core: Call sync_state() even if supplier has no consumers
      driver core: Add dev_has_sync_state()
      driver core: Skip unnecessary work when device doesn't have sync_state()
