[ Upstream commit 45dfa004893dfeae182ec27eddbd153c6d4ddbf9 ]

soc_bus_register() registers the SoC bus before registering a deferred
early SoC device. If soc_device_register() fails in that path, the
function returns the error directly and leaves the bus registered.

Store the returned SoC device pointer explicitly so the success and
error cases are handled separately. On failure, clear soc_bus_registered
and unregister the bus before returning the error.

<title>driver core: soc: remove layering violation for the soc_bus</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 90be1f15c39858a4f0f4346c39fa150697d231c1 ]

The soc_bus code pokes around in the internal bus structures assuming
that it "knows" if a field is not set that it has not been registered
yet.  That isn't a safe assumption, so just remove the layering
violation entirely and keep track if the bus has been registered or not
ourselves.

<content type='text'>
The soc_dev_attr is stored soc_dev-&gt;attr during soc_device_register() so
it could be used till the cleanup call: soc_device_unregister().
Therefore this memory should not be freed prior, but after unregistering
soc device.

<id>urn:sha1:948b3edba8988306b635578a72b0dab6091a5eb0</id>
<content type='text'>
Change additional instances that could use sysfs_emit and sysfs_emit_at
that the coccinelle script could not convert.

o macros creating show functions with ## concatenation
o unbound sprintf uses with buf+len for start of output to sysfs_emit_at
o returns with ?: tests and sprintf to sysfs_emit
o sysfs output with struct class * not struct device * arguments

Miscellanea:

o remove unnecessary initializations around these changes
o consistently use int len for return length of show functions
o use octal permissions and not S_&lt;FOO&gt;
o rename a few show function names so DEVICE_ATTR_&lt;FOO&gt; can be used
o use DEVICE_ATTR_ADMIN_RO where appropriate
o consistently use const char *output for strings
o checkpatch/style neatening

<content type='text'>
Soc framework exposed sysfs entries are not sufficient for some
of the h/w platforms. Currently there is no interface where soc
drivers can expose further information about their SoCs via soc
framework. This change address this limitation where clients can
pass their custom entries as attribute group and soc framework
would expose them as sysfs properties.

Add new attribute named "serial_number" as a standard interface for
user space to acquire the serial number of the device.

For ST-Ericsson SoCs this is exposed by the cryptically named "soc_id"
attribute, but this provides a human readable standardized name for this
property.
