[PATCH 5/9] driver core: do not always lock parent in shutdown

[sashiko-bot at kernel.org]

> Don't lock a parent device unless it is needed in device_shutdown. This
> is in preparation for making device shutdown asynchronous, when it will
> be needed to allow children of a common parent to shut down
> simultaneously.
> 
> And only acquire a reference to the parent device if the parent is to be
> locked.
