Here is a summary (please anyone involved correct me if I am wrong) 1) I send a patch to fix the oops if release resource is executed with a resource without parent 2) Bjorn says that we should fix the issue of the problem, which he pointed out being that we use platform_device_del() after using of_device_add() 3) I resend a patchset to use platform_devide_add() 4) 3 series of cleanouts after the help from Rob and Bjorn 5) Greg adds the series (v5) to his device core tree 6) You complaint that that series can break miss behaved platforms 7) I send a couple of patches that fix your problem and leaves the window open to blacklist the platforms that miss behave. now you send a patch that takes us to back to step 1), and adds some code that is already merged into gregk's https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core.git/tree/drivers/base/platform.c?h=driver-core-testing#n314 Wouldn't you agree that it will be a better solution to give your feedback regarding https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/5/246 and fix this issue together? that solution has been reviewed by a bunch of people, removes code duplication and afaik, is tested, does not break any platform, and I believe that is closer to an scenario when we can remove of_device_add() and all the devices behave similarly.
