Hi William,

I would leave the existing drivers where they are until you are ready
to convert them. I.e. Do the moves as separate patches from this one
as it just adds noise here and they aren't ready immediately.

The externs in the header add code for no benefit and make it hard
to align the parameters nicely. I would drop them all.

Few other minor bits and bobs inline. There is a lot of 'automatic'
cleanup in here, but I think you have missed a few cases where the
attribute element hasn't 'yet' been added to the list. (I may be
missing something)

Fundamentally looks good though.

Jonathan

Handling, would expect errors to cause a direct unwind of antying this
function has done that isn't automatically handled elsewhere. So far we
have set the name to some memory allocated but nothing else. I think
that needs freeing as we haven't added it to the list yet?

This one seems a little crazy to handle in here. I really hope we know

If you want to use a unified function to 'undo' this block
free_counter_device_groups_list then I would expect to see this
block as a separate function to which that one is matched.

The flow here is rather complex vs the remove. Not sure there is an
easy way to clean it up though.

Given release is responsible for the normal cleanup, it would have
been easier to review if we had release as the next function after
this one.

I think you are always fine with device_state->* using local variable.

Where possible align with the opening bracket.

Hmm. I would do this later after you have everything up to move the drivers
over.
Just adds noise to this complex patch.

I wonder if you are ever going to want to have in kernel consumers.
Using strings this early level would make that hard.

I'm also unclear on why it makes sense to do so given count
is always an integer - Potentially things could get interesting
when you are either signed or unsigned and matching the number of
bits (s16, u16 or similar).

Given this is in kernel interface though, nothing stops you modifying
it later if you change your mind about this.

Ah, this email was still in my outbox! (see later comment that says
I missed this). I would pull all these function pointers out to an
ops structure. They will tend to be fixed for a given device
so there are lots of advantages in code simplicity and also being
able to make function pointers constant is always good for security.

This one surprised me. Only one option?

Why extern?
Also, where possible align parameters with the opening bracket.
