Add a fwnode pointer to struct drm_connector and register an acpi_bus_type for the connectors with the ACPI subsystem (when CONFIG_ACPI is enabled). The adding of the fwnode pointer allows drivers to associate a fwnode that represents a connector with that connector. When the new fwnode pointer points to an ACPI-companion, then the new acpi_bus_type will cause the ACPI subsys to bind the device instantiated for the connector with the fwnode by calling acpi_bind_one(). This will result in a firmware_node symlink under /sys/class/card#-<connecter-name>/ which helps to verify that the fwnode-s and connectors are properly matched. Changes in v2: - Make drm_connector_cleanup() call fwnode_handle_put() on connector->fwnode and document this Co-developed-by: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Lyude Paul <lyude@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210817215201.795062-3-hdegoede@redhat.com
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
