How about something like > this; Yes, this approach should work. I assume a device that doesn't have a shutdown function will be happy to let the i2c core disable the irq for it so it looks low risk. Will you send a proper patch to Wolfram or would you like me to wrap it up and resend? > > diff --git a/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c b/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c > index 38107c0c318c..c835e7bb71de 100644 > --- a/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c > +++ b/drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c > @@ -603,9 +603,12 @@ static void i2c_device_shutdown(struct device *dev) > > if (!client || !dev->driver) > return; > + > driver = to_i2c_driver(dev->driver); > if (driver->shutdown) > driver->shutdown(client); > + else if (client->irq > 0) > + disable_irq(client->irq); > } > > static void i2c_client_dev_release(struct device *dev) >
