This patch series fixes the problem of devm_led_classdev_register misusing.
The basic problem is described in [1]. Shortly when devm_led_classdev_register()
is used then led_classdev_unregister() called after driver's remove() callback.
led_classdev_unregister() calls driver's brightness_set callback and that callback
may use resources which were destroyed already in driver's remove().
After discussion with maintainers [2] [3] we decided:
1) don't touch led subsystem core code and don't remove led_set_brightness() from it
but fix drivers
2) don't use devm_led_classdev_unregister
So the solution is to use devm wrappers for all resources
driver's brightness_set() depends on. And introduce dedicated devm wrapper
for mutex as it's often used resource.

Changelog:
v1->v2:
revise patch series completely
v2->v3:
locking: add define if mutex_destroy() is not an empty function
new patch, discussed here [8]
devm-helpers: introduce devm_mutex_init
previous version [4]
- revise code based on mutex_destroy define
- update commit message
- update devm_mutex_init()'s description
leds: aw2013: unlock mutex before destroying it
previous version [5]
- make this patch first in the series
- add tags Fixes and RvB by Andy
leds: aw2013: use devm API to cleanup module's resources
previous version [6]
- make aw2013_chip_disable_action()'s body one line
- don't shadow devm_mutex_init() return code
leds: aw200xx: use devm API to cleanup module's resources
previous version [7]
- make aw200xx_*_action()'s bodies one line
- don't shadow devm_mutex_init() return code
leds: lm3532: use devm API to cleanup module's resources

- those patches were planned but not sent in the series #2 due to mail server
problem on my side. I revised them according to the comments.
v3->v4:
locking: introduce devm_mutex_init
new patch
- move devm_mutex_init implementation completely from devm-helpers.h to mutex.h
locking: add define if mutex_destroy() is not an empty function
drop the patch [9]
devm-helpers: introduce devm_mutex_init
drop the patch [10]
leds: aw2013: use devm API to cleanup module's resources
- add tag Tested-by: Nikita Travkin <[email protected]>
v4->v5:
leds: aw2013: unlock mutex before destroying it
merged separately and removed from the series
locking/mutex: move mutex_destroy() definition lower
introduce optional refactoring patch
locking/mutex: introduce devm_mutex_init
leave only one devm_mutex_init definition
add tag Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <[email protected]>
leds* patches
remove #include <linux/devm-helpers.h> due to devm_mutex_init() in mutex.h now
v5->v6:
locking/mutex: move mutex_destroy() definition lower [11]
drop the patch due to devm_mutex_init block is big enough to be declared standalone.
locking/mutex: introduce devm_mutex_init
redesign devm_mutex_init function to macro to keep lockdep feature working
use typeof to redeclare mutex var in macro body (thanks to checkpatch)
previous version [12]
v6->v7:
locking/mutex: introduce devm_mutex_init
fix comment at __devm_mutex_init
move #include <linux/device.h> upper
commit message: change devm_mutex_init -> devm_mutex_init(), add point in the end
fix and move up tag Suggested-by: Christophe Leroy <[email protected]>
