Series platform/x86: Allow retrieving the number of WMI object instances |

  Currently, the WMI driver core knows how many instances of a given
WMI object exist, but WMI drivers cannot access this information.
At the same time, some current and upcoming WMI drivers want to
have access to this information. Add wmi_instance_count() and
wmidev_instance_count() to allow WMI drivers to get the number of
WMI object instances.

Maybe just return 0 here ?

The GUID not existing at all does not seem like
an error to me, but rather a case of there
being 0 instances.

This will also allow patch 2/2 to completely
drop the get_instance_count() function and
replace its callers with direct calls to
wmi_instance_count() as the code is known
to always pass a valid GUID, so it won't hit
the -EINVAL path.

Regards,

Hans

Hi,

i would prefer returning -ENODEV instead of 0, so WMI drivers can
distinguish between "not found" and "zero instances". Also i do not
think that relying on the parameter of get_instance_count() always
being a valid GUID is a good idea, just in case wmi_instance_count()
is later modified to be able to encounter runtime errors.

Ah right, that is a good point, ok lets keep this as is then.
