<content type='text'>
Move helper functions for client device registration to the core module.
This simplifies addition of future DT/OF support and also allows us to
split out the device hub drivers into their own module.

At the same time, also improve device node validation a bit by not
silently skipping devices with invalid device UID specifiers. Further,
ensure proper lifetime management for the firmware/software nodes
associated with the added devices.

With the introduction of the Surface Laptop Studio, more event- and
target categories have been added. Therefore, increase the number of
reserved events and extend the enum of know target categories to
accommodate this.

<title>platform/surface: aggregator: Add comment for KIP subsystem category</title>

<content type='text'>
The KIP subsystem (full name unknown, abbreviation has been obtained
through reverse engineering) handles detachable peripherals such as the
keyboard cover on the Surface Pro X and Surface Pro 8.

It is currently not entirely clear what this subsystem entails, but at
the very least it provides event notifications for when the keyboard
cover on the Surface Pro X and Surface Pro 8 have been detached or
re-attached, as well as the state that the keyboard cover is currently
in (e.g. folded-back, folded laptop-like, closed, etc.).

<title>platform/surface: aggregator: Allow notifiers to avoid communication on unregistering</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5c1e88b98c60e4074796e9a05d3c674479ab1919</id>
<content type='text'>
When SSAM client devices have been (physically) hot-removed,
communication attempts with those devices may fail and time out. This
can even extend to event notifiers, due to which timeouts may occur
during device removal, slowing down that process.

Add a parameter to the notifier unregister function that allows skipping
communication with the EC to prevent this. Furthermore, add wrappers for
registering and unregistering notifiers belonging to SSAM client devices
that automatically check if the device has been marked as hot-removed
and communication should be avoided.

Note that non-SSAM client devices can generally not be hot-removed, so
also add a convenience wrapper for those, defaulting to allow
communication.

<content type='text'>
Some SSAM devices, notably the keyboard cover (keyboard and touchpad) on
the Surface Pro 8, can be hot-removed. When this occurs, communication
with the device may fail and time out. This timeout can unnecessarily
block and slow down device removal and even cause issues when the
devices are detached and re-attached quickly. Thus, communication should
generally be avoided once hot-removal is detected.

While we already remove a device as soon as we detect its (hot-)removal,
the corresponding device driver may still attempt to communicate with
the device during teardown. This is especially critical as communication
failure may also extend to disabling of events, which is typically done
at that stage.

Add a flag to allow marking devices as hot-removed. This can then be
used during client driver teardown to check if any communication
attempts should be avoided.

<title>platform/surface: aggregator: Allow is_ssam_device() to be used when CONFIG_SURFACE_AGGREGATOR_BUS is disabled</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0eb6584068642767baab17c2e4385a6b9c029caa</id>
<content type='text'>
In SSAM subsystem drivers that handle both ACPI and SSAM-native client
devices, we may want to check whether we have a SSAM (native) client
device. Further, we may want to do this even when instantiation thereof
cannot happen due to CONFIG_SURFACE_AGGREGATOR_BUS=n. Currently, doing
so causes an error due to an undefined reference error due to
ssam_device_type being placed in the bus source unit.

Therefore, if CONFIG_SURFACE_AGGREGATOR_BUS is not defined, simply let
is_ssam_device() return false to prevent this error.

Currently, there are similar functions defined in the Aggregator
Registry and the controller core.

Make client device removal more generic and export it. We can then use
this function later on to remove client devices from device hubs as well
as the controller and avoid re-defining similar things.

<title>HID: surface-hid: Use correct event registry for managing HID events</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dc0fd0acb6e0e8025a0a43ada54513b216254fac</id>
<content type='text'>
Until now, we have only ever seen the REG-category registry being used
on devices addressed with target ID 2. In fact, we have only ever seen
Surface Aggregator Module (SAM) HID devices with target ID 2. For those
devices, the registry also has to be addressed with target ID 2.

Some devices, like the new Surface Laptop Studio, however, address their
HID devices on target ID 1. As a result of this, any target ID 2
commands time out. This includes event management commands addressed to
the target ID 2 REG-category registry. For these devices, the registry
has to be addressed via target ID 1 instead.

We therefore assume that the target ID of the registry to be used
depends on the target ID of the respective device. Implement this
accordingly.

Note that we currently allow the surface HID driver to only load against
devices with target ID 2, so these timeouts are not happening (yet).
This is just a preparation step before we allow the driver to load
against all target IDs.
