The KHO framework uses a notifier chain as the mechanism for clients to participate in the finalization process. While this works for a single, central state machine, it is too restrictive for kernel-internal components like pstore/reserve_mem or IMA. These components need a simpler, direct way to register their state for preservation (e.g., during their initcall) without being part of a complex, shutdown-time notifier sequence. The notifier model forces all participants into a single finalization flow and makes direct preservation from an arbitrary context difficult. This patch refactors the client participation model by removing the notifier chain and introducing a direct API for managing FDT subtrees. The core kho_finalize() and kho_abort() state machine remains, but clients now register their data with KHO beforehand.

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 reStructuredText 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.
