Patchset:
PS3: Update in this: I did a research and realised that what I mentioned in the previous message as "next patch" was [of course] too optimistic, I need many more patches to complete this API change :)
I will be doing all that gradually, will set the same topic "register_master_api" and add the same reviewers.
Just to confirm, there are two big things I plan to do:
1 Moving register_shutdown into register_master: it won't be needed to call them separately, just calling register master do all the job (this patch starts this process)
2 Moving data memory management inside register master: won't be needed to alloc data in every driver and free in every shutdown function, api will do the job.
For 2, one more parameter is needed in register master, size of data (which can be a change to this existing patch, but also can be done separately later?). In any case, there are quite a few cleanups (for example removing global state) that I need to do here and there before I can start with 2.
