Immediately after the platform_device_unregister() the device will be cleaned up. Accessing the freed pointer immediately after that will crash the system. Found this bug when kernel is built with CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING and testing loading/unloading audio drivers in a loop on Qcom platforms. Fix this by moving of_node_clear_flag() just before the unregister calls. Below is the crash trace: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 6b6b6b6b6b6c03 Mem abort info: ESR = 0x96000021 Exception class = DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits SET = 0, FnV = 0 EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 Data abort info: ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000021 CM = 0, WnR = 0 [006b6b6b6b6b6c03] address between user and kernel address ranges Internal error: Oops: 96000021 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 2 PID: 1784 Comm: sh Tainted: G W 4.17.0-rc7-02230-ge3a63a7ef641-dirty #204 Hardware name: Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
