[PATCH] serial: 8250_bcm7271: Fix arbitration handling

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

 



The arbitration of the UART DMA is mishandled for a few
exceptional cases when probing and releasing the driver.

It is possible that the DMA register spaces are not defined in
device tree for an instance of the driver, so attempts to access
the registers in brcmuart_arbitration() would use NULL pointers.

It is also possible for the probe function to return an error
while still holding the UART DMA. This would prevent the UART
DMA from being claimed by an instance that could use it.

These errors are addressed by only releasing the UART DMA if it
is held by this instance (i.e. priv->dma_enabled == 1) and
directing early error paths in probe to this common release_dma
handling.
