Some devices depend on the master controller driver setup function being called before calling any chipselect functions. Insure that this is done otherwise uninitialized structures may be accessed causing a kernel panic.

Tested this patch on K2E evm and am437 starterkit which both have SPI devices to insure regressions aren't seen. drivers/spi/spi.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/spi/spi.c b/drivers/spi/spi.c index 4c638f3..9d5525a 100644 --- a/drivers/spi/spi.c +++ b/drivers/spi/spi.c @@ -2059,11 +2059,11 @@ int spi_setup(struct spi_device *spi) if (!spi->max_speed_hz) spi->max_speed_hz = spi->master->max_speed_hz; - spi_set_cs(spi, false); - if (spi->master->setup) status = spi->master->setup(spi); + spi_set_cs(spi, false); + dev_dbg(&spi->dev, "setup mode %d, %s%s%s%s%u bits/w, %u Hz max --> %d\n", (int) (spi->mode & (SPI_CPOL | SPI_CPHA)), (spi->mode & SPI_CS_HIGH) ?
