[PATCH v20 2/8] i3c: master: Add controller-only device operation helpers

[sashiko-bot at kernel.org]

> The generic I3C device attach and IBI paths perform both core-level
> bookkeeping and controller-specific operations. An I3C hub, however,
> maintains a logical device descriptor on the virtual downstream bus and
> a separate parent-facing descriptor used by the physical parent
> controller.
> 
> Add controller-only helpers that invoke the controller callbacks
> without updating the bus device list, address-slot state, or generic IBI
> lifecycle. This allows the hub framework to keep the logical descriptor
> associated with the virtual controller while using a permanent
> parent-facing descriptor for operations handled by the physical
> controller.
> 
> Add helpers for:
>   - attaching, reattaching, and detaching a device from a controller;
> [ ... ]
> individual controller drivers.
