Guarantee that an auxiliary driver will be unbound before its parent is unbound; there is no point in operating an auxiliary device whose parent has been unbound. In practice, this guarantee allows us to assume that for a bound auxiliary device, also the parent device is bound. This is useful when an auxiliary driver calls into its parent, since it allows the parent to directly access device resources and its device private data due to the guaranteed bound device context.

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.
