The commit b286f4e87e32 ("serial: core: Move tty and serdev to be children

and device_find_child_by_name cannot find ttyS* devices because they are
no longer directly attached. Add some logic to restore symlinks creation
to the driver for OCP TimeCard.

Hi,
This is the friendly patch-bot of Greg Kroah-Hartman. You have sent him
a patch that has triggered this response. He used to manually respond
to these common problems, but in order to save his sanity (he kept
writing the same thing over and over, yet to different people), I was
created. Hopefully you will not take offence and will fix the problem
in your patch and resubmit it so that it can be accepted into the Linux
kernel tree.
You are receiving this message because of the following common error(s)
as indicated below:
- You have marked a patch with a "Fixes:" tag for a commit that is in an
older released kernel, yet you do not have a cc: stable line in the
signed-off-by area at all, which means that the patch will not be
applied to any older kernel releases. To properly fix this, please
follow the documented rules in the
Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst file for how to resolve
this.
If you wish to discuss this problem further, or you have questions about
how to resolve this issue, please feel free to respond to this email and
Greg will reply once he has dug out from the pending patches received
from other developers.
Hi Greg!
Just gentle ping, I'm still looking for better solution for serial
device lookup in TimeCard driver.
See my comment on the other patch in this thread.
In short, you shouldn't need to do any of this.
Got it, thanks. I'll try to find another way.
Wait, no, please just remove all that, it should not be needed at all.
Do you mean remove symlinks from the driver? We have open-source
user-space software which relies on them to discover proper devices. If
I remove symlinks it will break the software.
