Add `comedi_open_from(path, from)` and `comedi_close_from(dev, from)` as variants of the existing `comedi_from(path)` and `comedi_close(dev)`. The additional `from` parameter is a minor device number that tells the function that the COMEDI device is being opened or closed from another COMEDI device if the value is in the range [0, `COMEDI_NUM_BOARD_MINORS`-1]. In that case the function will refuse to open the device if it would lead to a chain of devices opening each other. (It will also impose a limit on the number of simultaneous opens from one device to another because we need to count those.) The new functions are intended to be used by the "comedi_bond" driver, which is the only driver that uses the existing `comedi_open()` and `comedi_close()` functions. The new functions will be used to avoid some possible deadlock situations. Replace the existing, exported `comedi_open()` and `comedi_close()` functions with inline wrapper functions that call the newly exported `comedi_open_from()` and `comedi_close_from()` functions.

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.
