    drivercore: Fix unregistration path of platform devices · 7f5dcaf1

    The unregister path of platform_device is broken. On registration, it
    will register all resources with either a parent already set, or
    type==IORESOURCE_{IO,MEM}. However, on unregister it will release
    everything with type==IORESOURCE_{IO,MEM}, but ignore the others. There
    are also cases where resources don't get registered in the first place,
    like with devices created by of_platform_populate()*.
    
    Fix the unregister path to be symmetrical with the register path by
    checking the parent pointer instead of the type field to decide which
    resources to unregister. This is safe because the upshot of the
    registration path algorithm is that registered resources have a parent
    pointer, and non-registered resources do not.
    
    * It can be argued that of_platform_populate() should be registering
      it's resources, and they argument has some merit. However, there are
      quite a few platforms that end up broken if we try to do that due to
      overlapping resources in the device tree. Until that is fixed, we need
      to solve the immediate problem.
