of_find_i2c_adapter_by_node() call requires quite often missing put_device(), and i2c_put_adapter() releases a device locked by i2c_get_adapter() only. Below is a common error reproduction scenario as a result of the misusage described above (this is run on iMX6 platform with HDMI and I2C bus drivers compiled as kernel modules for clearness): root@mx6q:~# lsmod | grep i2c i2c_imx 15348 0 root@mx6q:~# lsmod | grep dw_hdmi_imx dw_hdmi_imx 3567 0 dw_hdmi 15850 1 dw_hdmi_imx imxdrm 8610 3 dw_hdmi_imx,imx_ipuv3_crtc,imx_ldb root@mx6q:~# rmmod dw_hdmi_imx root@mx6q:~# lsmod | grep i2c i2c_imx 15348 -1 ^^^^^ root@mx6q:~# rmmod i2c_imx rmmod: ERROR: Module i2c_imx is in use To fix existing users of these interfaces use of_get_i2c_adapter_by_node() interface, which is similar to i2c_get_adapter() in sense that an I2C bus device driver found and locked by a user can be correctly unlocked by i2c_put_adapter() call. Changes from v1 to v2: - none, this series is a straightforward bugfix, v1 was a blend of I2C core changes, bugfixes and improvements The change is based on dri/drm-next.
