This is almost a BUG report with a patch to just avoid kernel error message. Thus, prefixed with [BUG][RFC]. RFC: 1. Regarding the NULL check in hmm_init(), it was added for the case when probe failed [1]. So, need to address that case with the other means? But I'm not sure how we can do for the case. 2. Regarding the WARN_ON() in hmm_free(), there is a patch from Alan ("atomisp: hmm gives a bogus warning on unload") [1] but I haven't looked into it yet.
