Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.
Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening
in the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and
"struct class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these
changes.
This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
"provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules
for all busses and classes in the kernel.
The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most
of them actually did so.
Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
things:
- kobject logging improvements
- cacheinfo improvements and updates
- obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes
- documentation updates
- device property cleanups and const * changes
- firwmare loader dependency fixes.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems"

returning void
The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.
Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

The module pointer in class_create() never actually did anything, and it
shouldn't have been requred to be set as a parameter even if it did
something. So just remove it and fix up all callers of the function in
the kernel tree at the same time.

Constify two static structs which are never modified, to allow the
compiler to put them in read-only memory.
The only usage of controller_attribute_group is to put its address in an
array of pointers to const struct attribute_group, and the only usage of
can_power_ops is to assign its address to the 'ops' field in the
regulator_desc struct, which is a pointer to const struct regulator_ops.

In current code, controller_probe() misses to call ida_simple_remove()
in an error path. Jump to correct label to fix it.

Use devm_platform_ioremap_resource helper which wraps
platform_get_resource() and devm_ioremap_resource() together. Issue
found by coccicheck.

The arcx-anybus's registers are accessed via a memory-mapped
IO region. A regmap associated with this region is created
using custom reg_read() / reg_write() callbacks.
However, an abstraction which creates a memory-mapped IO
region backed regmap already exists: devm_regmap_init_mmio().
Replace the custom regmap with the existing kernel abstraction.
As a pleasant side-effect, sparse warnings now disappear.

Add a driver for the Arcx anybus controller.
This device implements two Anybus-S hosts (buses),
and connects to the SoC via a parallel memory bus.
There is also a CAN power readout, unrelated to the Anybus,
modelled as a regulator.
