stmicro uses PCI devres in the wrong way. Resources requested
through pcim_* functions don't need to be cleaned up manually in
the
remove() callback or in the error unwind path of a probe()
function.

Moreover, there is an unnecessary loop which only requests and
ioremaps
BAR 0, but iterates over all BARs nevertheless.

Furthermore, pcim_iomap_regions() and pcim_iomap_table() have been
deprecated by the PCI subsystem in commit e354bb84a4c1 ("PCI:
Deprecate
pcim_iomap_table(), pcim_iomap_regions_request_all()").

Replace these functions with pcim_iomap_region().

Remove the unnecessary manual pcim_* cleanup calls.

Remove the unnecessary loop over all BARs.

It seems your series reveals issues in the error paths of .probe():s
in many drivers...

If we use pcim variant to enable device, why do we need to explicitly
disable it?
No.

Not sure why we need these either...
It's complicated.

The code uses pciM_enable_device(), but here in remove
pci_disable_device().

pcim_enable_device() sets up a disable callback which only calls
pci_disable_device() if pcim_pin_device() has not been called.

This code doesn't seem to call pcim_pin_device(), so I think
pci_disable_device() could be removed.


I definitely would not feel confident touching pci_disable_msi(),
though. The AFAIK biggest problem remaining in PCI devres is that the
MSI code base implicitly calls into devres, see here [1]
