Subject: [PATCH 0/3] cleanup: provide and use a locking guard for nested read semaphores

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@...aro.org>

This series adds cleanup infrastructure for defining locking guards with
additional arguments, then uses it to provide a guard for
down_read_nested() with RW semaphores and finally uses the new guard in
GPIOLIB.

Patch 3/3 of this series is a second attempt, this time with
lockdep-correct nesting.

The first two patches can either be picked up into the relevant
maintainer trees and I can pull an immutable tag or can be acked and go
directly through the GPIO tree.

Bartosz Golaszewski (3):
  cleanup: provide DEFINE_LOCK_GUARD_ARGS()
  locking/rwsem: provide a lock guard for down_read_nested()
  gpiolib: pin GPIO devices in place during descriptor lookup
