[PATCH v5 0/7] driver core: remove software node from platform devices on device release

[Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@oss.qualcomm.com>]

This fixes an issue in platform device code where, if we specify a
software node for a platform device using struct platform_device_info,
it will not be removed on device .release().

This is an extended approach from v4 where we also first introduce
necessary changes in drivers where the fix may cause a regression.

Merging strategy: Danilo suggested that the new interface we add in this
series as well as prerequisite driver changes can still land in v7.1 so I
think the entire series should go upstream through the driver core. The first
5 patches are part of the fix and the remaining two add tests which
can't really do harm.

DRM and platform maintainers: please Ack the two driver patches in this
series.

Changes in v5:
- Provide a helper for users of platform_device_alloc() that wish to
  assign a software node to a platform device
- Rework drivers that could regress after the swnode leak fix
- Split the series into several patches as necessary
- Link to v4: https://patch.msgid.link/20260430-swnode-remove-on-dev-unreg-v4-0-01574da0aed3@oss.qualcomm.com

Changes in v4:
- Drop redundant !pdevinfo->swnode check in
  platform_device_register_full()
- Handle all three combinations with which two software nodes can be
  assigned to a platform device
- Extend the new kunit test to verify all three combinations
- Link to v3: https://patch.msgid.link/20260428-swnode-remove-on-dev-unreg-v3-0-533bdc71b22e@oss.qualcomm.com

Changes in v3:
- Make sure the reference of the primary software node we possibly take,
  is always released by moving the get() before calls that may fail
- Don't allow passing two software nodes
- Add a test case for that situation
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260423-swnode-remove-on-dev-unreg-v2-0-0e5213cde2ed@oss.qualcomm.com

Changes in v2:
- Change the order between removing the software node and dropping the
  reference to the device's OF node
- Address a situation where a software node is used as the primary
  firmware node
- Add a patch adding a new kunit helper
- Add another test case
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260410-swnode-remove-on-dev-unreg-v1-0-cd7d305f3db2@oss.qualcomm.com
