Jorge Sanjuan Garcia 0f28ada1fb mcb: remove is_added flag from mcb_device struct
When calling mcb_bus_add_devices(), both mcb devices and the mcb
bus will attempt to attach a device to a driver because they share
the same bus_type. This causes an issue when trying to cast the
container of the device to mcb_device struct using to_mcb_device(),
leading to a wrong cast when the mcb_bus is added. A crash occurs
when freing the ida resources as the bus numbering of mcb_bus gets
confused with the is_added flag on the mcb_device struct.

The only reason for this cast was to keep an is_added flag on the
mcb_device struct that does not seem necessary. The function
device_attach() handles already bound devices and the mcb subsystem
does nothing special with this is_added flag so remove it completely.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
