Saravana Kannan 3a2dbc510c driver core: fw_devlink: Don't purge child fwnode's consumer links
When a device X is bound successfully to a driver, if it has a child
firmware node Y that doesn't have a struct device created by then, we
delete fwnode links where the child firmware node Y is the supplier. We
did this to avoid blocking the consumers of the child firmware node Y
from deferring probe indefinitely.

While that a step in the right direction, it's better to make the
consumers of the child firmware node Y to be consumers of the device X
because device X is probably implementing whatever functionality is
represented by child firmware node Y. By doing this, we capture the
device dependencies more accurately and ensure better
probe/suspend/resume ordering.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
