commit 483d821108791092798f5d230686868112927044 upstream.

Unregister GPIOs requested through sysfs at chip remove to avoid leaking
the associated memory and sysfs entries.

The stale sysfs entries prevented the gpio numbers from being exported
when the gpio range was later reused (e.g. at device reconnect).

This also fixes the related module-reference leak.

Note that kernfs makes sure that any on-going sysfs operations finish
before the class devices are unregistered and that further accesses
fail.

The chip exported flag is used to prevent gpiod exports during removal.
This also makes it harder to trigger, but does not fix, the related race
between gpiochip_remove and export_store, which is really a race with
gpiod_request that needs to be addressed separately.

Also note that this would prevent the crashes (e.g. NULL-dereferences)
at reconnect that affects pre-3.18 kernels, as well as use-after-free on
operations on open attribute files on pre-3.14 kernels (prior to
kernfs).

Unregister gpiochip device (used to export information through sysfs)
before removing it internally. This way removal will reverse addition.

commit 0915e6feb38de8d3601819992a5bd050201a56fa upstream.

The gpio device attributes were never destroyed when the gpio was
unexported (or on export failures).

Use device_create_with_groups() to create the default device attributes
of the gpio class device. Note that this also fixes the
attribute-creation race with userspace for these attributes.

Remove contingent attributes in export error path and on unexport.

Some functions dereferenced their GPIO descriptor argument without
checking its validity first, potentially leading to an oops when given
an invalid argument.

This patch also makes gpio_get_value() more resilient when given an
invalid GPIO, returning 0 instead of silently crashing.
