Subject: hwrng: amd - Revert managed API changes
From: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 69db7009318758769d625b023402161c750f7876 upstream.
After commit 31b2a73c9c5f ("hwrng: amd - Migrate to managed API"), the
amd-rng driver uses devres with pci_dev->dev to keep track of resources,
but does not actually register a PCI driver. This results in the
following issues:
1. The message
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 621 at drivers/base/dd.c:349 driver_probe_device+0x38c
is output when the i2c_amd756 driver loads and attempts to register a PCI
driver. The PCI & device subsystems assume that no resources have been
registered for the device, and the WARN_ON() triggers since amd-rng has
already do so.
2. The driver leaks memory because the driver does not attach to a
device. The driver only uses the PCI device as a reference. devm_*()
functions will release resources on driver detach, which the amd-rng
driver will never do. As a result,
3. The driver cannot be reloaded because there is always a use of the
ioport and region after the first load of the driver.

API").
