Considering that we know that this series introduces new problems
for drivers with a .core_init_notifier (i.e. tegra and qcom), see:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/ZWYmX8Y%2F7Q9WMxES@x1-carbon/
Do we really want to apply this series as is?
Reading the patch, it appears that (at least some) tegra and
qcom boards currently causes a whole system hang, which IIUC,
renders those boards unusable.
So perhaps the new issues introduced by this series is preferable
to a whole system hang.
As such, I can understand the urgency to merge this series.
However, at the very least, I think that it might be worth amending
the commit message to mention that this will currently not deregister
the dma device in a clean way, leading to e.g. superfluous entries in
/sys/class/dma/ and debugfs warnings being printed to dmesg.
Kind regards,
Niklas
