Other buses don't do this... this is a big warning sign that you're abusing the driver model.
The whole master enumeration stuff, as we discussed in LPC will go away now. So it will be more like other buses :)

This is also *very* scary, especially given that there's no analysis presented as to why there might be random other things on the bus. Why does SoundWire need this when other buses don't?
Sure I will double check on this one and sounds to me we cna remove this..

Since folks were doing both slave and master matches, this was done to be double sure, but this will go away now.

This looks *very* broken. Surely if we fail to attach a pm_domain for any reason other than one not being there to attach we shouldn't be trying to probe the device?
Yes I agree, we shouldnt be doing probing in that case. Will fix that up.

This is EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() but the bus itself is dual licensed GPL/BSD
- seems a bit inconsistent.
Thanks for pointing this out. The symbols should use EXPORT_SYMBOL() only and the ones which link to other kernel GPL ones would need to be GPL ones.

This lies at the heart of the issues that seem to exist with the misuse of the driver model in this code. Normally what we see is that the controller would instantiate as whatever bus type the controller is attached by (typically a PCI or platform device) and then it wouild register a bus with the bus subsystem which would then instantiate slaves. Instead we have this system where the bus is registered by something in the system and then the master is a driver on the bus parallel to the slaves but with a separate driver type that causes confusion. Without having seen a master driver it's not even clear how this is going to work and allow the master to talk to its own hardware.
Yes as discussed the whole master stuff will eb redone so you wont see these bits in next rev.
