During discussion regarding card re-binding when components unregister and register back at https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/9/785 it was suggested that component framework can be added into core to provide this feature. With this new changes the card will re-bind once the dependent component re-registers after unregistering. This works based on the match done from component name using component framework. I have tested this patch with qdsp start-stop and module-load-unload usecase for more than 10000 times in loop on Qcom platforms. Thanks, srini Changes since v1: - Added new flag to enable/disable auto bind at card level, It is useful if machine driver/module is really removed/unloaded. Also to help cleanup the master component. Without this we will endup with a memory leak if the machine driver and memory associated with card are removed. - removed unregister from unbind callback. - updated match function as suggested by Vinod. - Added qdsp6 cleanup patches to this series.
