[PATCH 1/2] [media] rc-main: Fix device de-registration logic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



rc unregister logic were deadly broken, preventing some drivers to
be removed. Among the broken things, rc_dev_uevent() is being called
during device_del(), causing a data filling on an area that it is
not ready anymore.

Also, some drivers have a stop callback defined, that needs to be called
before data removal, as it stops data polling.
