[PATCH 3/5] driver core: async device shutdown infrastructure
David Jeffery

Wed Apr 29 10:50:14 PDT 2026
Patterned after async suspend, allow devices to mark themselves as wanting
to perform async shutdown. Devices using async shutdown wait only for their
dependencies to shutdown before executing their shutdown routine.
Sync shutdown devices are shut down one at a time and will only wait for an
async shutdown device if the async device is a dependency.
