Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.12 056/486] staging: vchiq_arm: Create keep-alive thread during probe

From: Stefan Wahren <wahrenst@....net>

[ Upstream commit 86bc8821700665ad3962f3ef0d93667f59cf7031 ]

Creating the keep-alive thread in vchiq_platform_init_state have
the following advantages:
- abort driver probe if kthread_create fails (more consistent behavior)
- make resource release process easier

Since vchiq_keepalive_thread_func is defined below
vchiq_platform_init_state, the latter must be moved.
