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.
