rust: devres: fix race condition due to nesting
Commit f5d3ef25d238 ("rust: devres: get rid of Devres' inner Arc") did attempt to optimize away the internal reference count of Devres. However, without an internal reference count, we can't support cases where Devres is indirectly nested, resulting into a deadlock. Such indirect nesting easily happens in the following way: A registration object (which is guarded by devres) hold a reference count of an object that holds a device resource guarded by devres itself. For instance a drm::Registration holds a reference of a drm::Device. The drm::Device itself holds a device resource in its private data. When the drm::Registration is dropped by devres, and it happens that it did hold the last reference count of the drm::Device, it also drops the device resource, which is guarded by devres itself. Thus, resulting into a deadlock in the Devres destructor of the device resource, as in the following backtrace. sysrq: Show Blocked State task:rmmod state:D stack:0 pid:1331 tgid:1331 ppid:1330 task_flags:0x400100 flags:0x00000010 Call trace: __switch_to+0x190/0x294 (T) __schedule+0x878/0xf10 schedule+0x4c/0xcc schedule_timeout+0x44/0x118 wait_for_common+0xc0/0x18c wait_for_completion+0x18/0x24 _RINvNtCs4gKlGRWyJ5S_4core3ptr13drop_in_placeINtNtNtCsgzhNYVB7wSz_6kernel4sync3arc3ArcINtNtBN_6devres6DevresmEEECsRdyc7Hyps3_15rust_driver_pci+0x68/0xe8 [rust_driver_pci] _RINvNvNtCsgzhNYVB7wSz_6kernel6devres16register_foreign8callbackINtNtCs4gKlGRWyJ5S_4core3pin3PinINtNtNtB6_5alloc4kbox3BoxINtNtNtB6_4sync3arc3ArcINtB4_6DevresmEENtNtB1A_9allocator7KmallocEEECsRdyc7Hyps3_15rust_driver_pci+0x34/0xc8 [rust_driver_pci] devm_action_release+0x14/0x20 devres_release_all+0xb8/0x118 device_release_driver_internal+0x1c4/0x28c driver_detach+0x94/0xd4 bus_remove_driver+0xdc/0x11c driver_unregister+0x34/0x58 pci_unregister_driver+0x20/0x80 __arm64_sys_delete_module+0x1d8/0x254 invoke_syscall+0x40/0xcc el0_svc_common+0x8c/0xd8 do_el0_svc+0x1c/0x28 el0_svc+0x54/0x1d4 el0t_64_sync_handler+0x84/0x12c el0t_64_sync+0x198/0x19c In order to fix this, re-introduce the internal reference count.
