[PATCH v2 0/6] ACPI: scan: MIPI DiSco for Imaging support

Hi Folks,

This is a new revision of

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/13276375.uLZWGnKmhe@kreacher/

which was reported to have issues and it took time to revisit it.

The v2 addresses at least 3 issues found in the v1 by code inspection:

* A port_count field incrementation was missing in acpi_mipi_scan_crs_csi2(),
  so its value for all of the devices having CSI2 resources in _CRS was always
  1 (and it should be equal to the number of valid CSI2 connection resources).

* Some acpi_mipi_crs_csi2_list members could be freed prematurely, so they were
  inaccessible when extract_crs_csi2_conn_info() attempted to access them.

* A check of remote_swnodes() against NULL was missing, which could result in
  a crash in a case when the swnodes memory could not be allocated for some
  acpi_mipi_crs_csi2_list entries.

Apart from that, it rearranges the code somewhat to make it easier to follow
and to avoid premature freeing of memory in it in general and the new file
added by it is now called mipi-di.c (instead of mipi-disco-imaging.c) for
compactness.

The series is based on current linux-next.

Thanks!
