In any case, it needs to be fixed. Here's an updated patch which just about fixes the sdhci-dove driver. I would not be surprised given the idiotic sdhci-pltfm API if many other drivers suffered the same bug. 8<==== From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] MMC: fix sdhci-dove probe/removal 1. Never ever publish a device in the system before it has been setup to a usable state. 2. Unregister the device _BEFORE_ taking away any resources it may be using. 3. Don't check clks against NULL.
