This driver is also buggy because it registers the IRQ handler before initialising the tasklet. You must always be prepared for spurious IRQs. IOW, as soon as you register the IRQ handler you must be prepared for it to be called. > @@ -1771,6 +1772,7 @@ static int spacc_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) > struct spacc_alg *alg, *next; > struct spacc_engine *engine = platform_get_drvdata(pdev); > > + tasklet_kill(&engine->complete); Ditto. However, the IRQ handler is registered through devm which makes it hard to kill the tasklet after unregistering it. We should probably convert it to a normal request_irq so we can control how it's unregistered.
