Ping, any suggestions here? Do we ought to replace platform_device_unregister() with of_device_unregister() similar to the approach taken in 02bbde7849e6 (Revert "of: use platform_device_add")? regards Suman >> >>> This is a common crash and we cannot use of_platform_depopulate() today >>> in drivers to complement of_platform_populate(). >> >> Yes, I know. >> >>> Also, the platform_data crash is independent of this, I could reproduce >>> that one even with using of_device_unregister in a loop in driver remove. >> >> Missed this one.
