`dio200_detach()` in "amplc_dio200.c" calls
`amplc_dio200_common_detach()` in "amplc_dio200_common.c", followed by
`comedi_legacy_detach()` in "../drivers.c".  Both of those functions
call `free_irq()` if `dev->irq` is non-zero.  The second call produces a
warning message because the handler has already been freed.  Prevent
that by setting `dev->irq = 0` in `amplc_dio200_common_detach()`.

Ian,

I have already gave a Reviewed-by signoff for this series.

After looking over the code I think a cleaner solution would be to:

1) Use comedi_legacy_detach() directly for the (*detach) in the
    legacy ISA driver.
2) Move the code from amplc_dio200_common_detach() into the
    (*detach) function for the PCI driver.
3) Remove the exported function amplc_dio200_common_detach().

So should I not apply these patches?

confused,

greg k-h

It fixes a bug (harmless, apart from a kernel warning), and does no harm, so might as well apply them. Hartley's suggestion can be done later.
