in venus_probe, core->work is bound with venus_sys_error_handler, which is used to handle error. The code use core->sys_err_done to make sync work. The core->work is started in venus_event_notify. If we call venus_remove, there might be an unfished work. The possible sequence is as follows: CPU0 CPU1 |venus_sys_error_handler venus_remove | hfi_destroy | venus_hfi_destroy | kfree(hdev); | |hfi_reinit |venus_hfi_queues_reinit |//use hdev Fix it by canceling the work in venus_remove.
