In the unlikely event of the allocation failing, it is better to let
the machine boot with a not fully populated sysfs than to kill it with
this BUG_ON(). All callers are already prepared for
lookup_or_create_module_kobject() returning NULL.
This is also preparation for calling this function from non __init
code, where using BUG_ON for allocation failure handling is not
acceptable.
Since we are here, also start using IS_ENABLED instead of #ifdef
construct.

Add the __counted_by compiler attribute to the flexible array member
attrs to improve access bounds-checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.
Increment num before adding a new param_attribute to the attrs array and
adjust the array index accordingly. Increment num immediately after the
first reallocation such that the reallocation for the NULL terminator
only needs to add 1 (instead of 2) to mk->mp->num.
Use struct_size() instead of manually calculating the size for the
reallocation.
Use krealloc_array() for the additional NULL terminator.

Since commit ee6d3dd4ed ("driver core: make kobj_type constant.")
the driver core allows the usage of const struct kobj_type.
Take advantage of this to constify the structure definition to prevent
modification at runtime.

strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool().
However, the latter is more used within the kernel.
In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to
the other function name.
While at it, include the corresponding header file (<linux/kstrtox.h>)

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.2-rc1.
The "big" change in here is the addition of a new macro,
container_of_const() that will preserve the "const-ness" of a pointer
passed into it.
The "problem" of the current container_of() macro is that if you pass
in a "const *", out of it can comes a non-const pointer unless you
specifically ask for it. For many usages, we want to preserve the
"const" attribute by using the same call. For a specific example, this
series changes the kobj_to_dev() macro to use it, allowing it to be
used no matter what the const value is. This prevents every subsystem
from having to declare 2 different individual macros (i.e.
kobj_const_to_dev() and kobj_to_dev()) and having the compiler enforce
the const value at build time, which having 2 macros would not do
either.
The driver for all of this have been discussions with the Rust kernel
developers as to how to properly mark driver core, and kobject,
objects as being "non-mutable". The changes to the kobject and driver
core in this pull request are the result of that, as there are lots of
paths where kobjects and device pointers are not modified at all, so
marking them as "const" allows the compiler to enforce this.
So, a nice side affect of the Rust development effort has been already
to clean up the driver core code to be more obvious about object
rules.
All of this has been bike-shedded in quite a lot of detail on lkml
with different names and implementations resulting in the tiny version
we have in here, much better than my original proposal. Lots of
subsystem maintainers have acked the changes as well.
Other than this change, included in here are smaller stuff like:
- kernfs fixes and updates to handle lock contention better
- vmlinux.lds.h fixes and updates
- sysfs and debugfs documentation updates
- device property updates
All of these have been in the linux-next tree for quite a while with
no problems"

param_sysfs_init(), and in particular param_sysfs_builtin() is rather
time-consuming; for my board, it currently takes about 30ms.
That amounts to about 3% of the time budget I have from U-Boot hands
over control to linux and linux must assume responsibility for keeping
the external watchdog happy.
We must still continue to initialize module_kset at subsys_initcall
time, since otherwise any request_module() would fail in
mod_sysfs_init(). However, the bulk of the work in
param_sysfs_builtin(), namely populating /sys/module/*/version and/or
/sys/module/*/parameters/ for builtin modules, can be deferred to
late_initcall time - there's no userspace yet anyway to observe
contents of /sys or the lack thereof.

The variable module_sysfs_initialized is used for checking whether
module_kset has been initialized. Checking module_kset itself works
just fine for that.
This is a leftover from commit 7405c1e15e ("kset: convert /sys/module
to use kset_create").
