To remove a PM domain from the system, it is necessary to ensure that any PM domain providers associated with the PM domain have been removed. Otherwise it could be possible to obtain a pointer to a PM domain structure that has been removed. PM domains now have a reference to the pointer for the PM domain provider's data variable. Add a function so that a PM domain can remove a PM domain provider by referencing the data pointer.quoted

Could this patch just convert that user to the new API, so we don't need to keep both the legacy and new one? I guess we could then just stick to the name "of_genpd_del_provider()".I had a look at this and to do that we would end up with of_genpd_del_provider(struct device_node *np, void *data) where the user should only pass one of the arguments. It seems a bit odd. However, unless I have forgotten something, I wonder if we should just make of_genpd_del_provider_by_name() a local function and not export this at all? It seems more natural for users to delete a provider by the device_node than by name rather than the data argument. The only problem I see with making of_genpd_del_provider_by_name() local is that I need to add a prototype for the function at the top of the domain.c source file so that it builds because __pm_genpd_remove() is defined above it. Yes I could move __pm_genpd_remove() to the bottom of the file but then it is not located next to pm_genpd_init() which seems odd. Let me know what you think.Sorry for delay! I have now looked into this in more detail.
No problem. Thanks!
When an genpd provider is added today, it's supposed to get a corresponding *unique* OF device node associated with it, right!? If we store this OF device node from the provider in the struct generic_pm_domain, instead of the "provider_data pointer", we wouldn't need to the add of_genpd_del_provider_by_data() at all. Because we can use the currently available of_genpd_del_provider(), right!? Or what am I missing? :-)
No that would work as well. I guess I was trying to make it non-DT specific. However, for now it can be to simplify matters and it could always be extended later if necessary. I am also thinking about making pm_genpd_remove_tail() of_genpd_remove_tail() as it seems silly to have both a struct device pointer and a struct device_node pointer stored for the provider.
