I'm unaware of any discussion surrounding this patch apart from the emails exchanged between me and Daniel starting in this thread, http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-mmc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg00820.html Actually, now I think about it, that changelog from Daniel's patch could do with being incorporated into mine, particularly the url to the ticket on http://dev.laptop.org. So maybe a patch like the following with your checkpatch.pl changes included. Unless you remember why you dropped the original? --- >From 3c23049de4d13e20c819d936a305544f208b67d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Fleming <matt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2009 14:50:56 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] sdio: Initialise SDIO functions and update card->sdio_funcs in lockstep Daniel Drake noticed a crash in the error path of mmc_attach_sdio(). This bug is discussed at http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/9707. BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 6b6b6c57 IP: [<b066d6e2>] sdio_remove_func+0x9/0x27 Call Trace: [<b066cfb4>] ? mmc_sdio_remove+0x34/0x65 [<b066d1fc>] ? mmc_attach_sdio+0x217/0x240 [<b066a22f>] ? mmc_rescan+0x1a2/0x20f [<b042e9a0>] ? worker_thread+0x156/0x1e We need to accurately track how many SDIO functions have been initialised (and keep card->sdio_funcs in sync) so that we don't try to remove more functions than we initialised if we hit the error path in mmc_attach_sdio(). Without this patch if we hit the error path in mmc_attach_sdio() we run the risk of deferencing invalid memory in sdio_remove_func(), leading to a crash.
