We want to enable runtime PM for serial port device drivers in a generic
way. To do this, we want to have the serial core layer manage the
registered physical serial controller devices.
To do this, let's set up a struct bus and struct device for the serial
core controller as suggested by Greg and Jiri. The serial core controller
devices are children of the physical serial port device. The serial core
controller device is needed to support multiple different kind of ports
connected to single physical serial port device.
Let's also set up a struct device for the serial core port. The serial
core port instances are children of the serial core controller device.
We need to also update the documentation a bit as suggested by Andy.
With the serial core port device we can now flush pending TX on the
runtime PM resume as suggested by Johan.

Changes since v6:
- Fix up a memory leak and a bunch of issues in serial_base.c as noted
by Andy
- Replace bool with new_ctrl_dev for freeing the added device on
error path
- Drop unused pm ops for serial_ctrl.c as noted by kernel test robot
- Drop documentation updates for acpi devices for now to avoid a merge
conflict and make testing easier between -rc2 and Linux next
Changes since v5:
- Replace platform bus and device with bus_add() and device_add(),
Greg did not like platform bus and device here. This also gets
rid of the need for platform data with struct serial_base_device,
see new file serial_base.c
- Update documentation to drop reference to struct uart_device as
suggested by Andy
Changes since v4:
- Fix issue noted by Ilpo by calling serial_core_add_one_port() after
the devices are created
Changes since v3:
- Simplify things by adding a serial core control device as the child of
the physical serial port as suggested by Jiri
- Drop the tinkering of the physical serial port device for runtime PM.
Serial core just needs to manage port->port_dev with the addition of
the serial core control device and the device hierarchy will keep the
pysical serial port device enabled as needed
- Simplify patch description with all the runtime PM tinkering gone
- Coding style improvments as noted by Andy
- Post as a single RFC patch as we're close to the merge window
Changes since v2:
- Make each serial port a proper device as suggested by Greg. This is
a separate patch that flushes the TX on runtime PM resume
Changes since v1:
- Use kref as suggested by Andy
- Fix memory leak on error as noted by Andy
- Use use unsigned char for supports_autosuspend as suggested by Andy
- Coding style improvments as suggested by Andy

Now this can be moved to the comments section (below '---' cutter)

Outer parentheses are redundant. The ' == 0' can be replaced with !,
but it's up to you.

Can we call this variable (and perhaps everywhere else) like sbd, or sbdev?
This will help to distinguish core device operations and serial one, because,
for example, I have stumbled over kfree(dev) and puzzled a lot.

Who should provide a ->release() callback?

It's still missing put_device() call as suggested by device_add() kernel
documentation. (Double) check also the removal path.

Since you are embedding the device object this won't suffice,
you need to include device.h.

The question here is why don't we need to actually turn on the device immediately
(sync) if it's not already powered?

I.o.w. does the start_tx() require device to be powered on at this point?

Include for the struct device_driver?
Do we need a separete include for EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS()?

Similar questions.
+ spinlock.h?

Doing it would require the use of pm_runtime_irq_safe() at least currently.

Yes. And if the device is not enabled, serial_port.c runtime_resume()
calls this function again after the hardware is enabled.

For your other comments, I'll take a look thanks.

Ah, that makes sense.
