Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the small set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.10-rc1.
Nothing major here at all, just a small set of changes for some driver
core apis, and minor fixups. Included in here are:
- sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read() helper added and used
- device_show_string() helper added and used
All usages of these were acked by the various maintainers. Also in
here are:
- kernfs minor cleanup
- removed unused functions
- typo fix in documentation
- pay attention to sysfs_create_link() failures in module.c finally
All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
reported problems"
* tag 'driver-core-6.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core:
device property: Fix a typo in the description of device_get_child_node_count()
kernfs: mount: Remove unnecessary ‘NULL’ values from knparent
scsi: Use device_show_string() helper for sysfs attributes
platform/x86: Use device_show_string() helper for sysfs attributes
perf: Use device_show_string() helper for sysfs attributes
IB/qib: Use device_show_string() helper for sysfs attributes
hwmon: Use device_show_string() helper for sysfs attributes
driver core: Add device_show_string() helper for sysfs attributes
treewide: Use sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read() helper
sysfs: Add sysfs_bin_attr_simple_read() helper
module: don't ignore sysfs_create_link() failures
driver core: Remove unused platform_notify, platform_notify_remove
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 ignored (apart
from emitting a warning) 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. Eventually after all drivers
are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove().
Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

Add the DDR Sub-System Driveway Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) driver
support for Alibaba T-Head Yitian 710 SoC chip. Yitian supports DDR5/4
DRAM and targets cloud computing and HPC.
Each PMU is registered as a device in /sys/bus/event_source/devices, and
users can select event to monitor in each sub-channel, independently. For
example, ali_drw_21000 and ali_drw_21080 are two PMU devices for two
sub-channels of the same channel in die 0. And the PMU device of die 1 is
prefixed with ali_drw_400XXXXX, e.g. ali_drw_40021000.
Due to hardware limitation, one of DDRSS Driveway PMU overflow interrupt
shares the same irq number with MPAM ERR_IRQ. To register DDRSS PMU and
MPAM drivers successfully, add IRQF_SHARED flag.
