Much like what was done in commit 273afac615 ("driver core: bus:
implement bus_get/put() without the private pointer"), it is time to
move the driver core away from using the internal private pointer in
struct class in order to enable it to be always a constant and be placed
in read-only memory in the future.
First step in doing this is to create a helper function that turns a
'struct class' into 'struct subsys_private' called class_to_subsys().
class_to_subsys() walks the list of registered busses in the system and
finds the matching one based on the pointer to the class itself. As
this is a short list, and this function is not on any fast path, it
should not be noticable.
Implement class_get() and class_put() using this new helper function.

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.
