The patch spi: spi-fsl-dspi: Drop extra spi_master_put in device remove function has been applied to the spi tree at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 6999aeabbb703a81a204cb6f9f8f151759a99ac4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Yongjun <weiyj.lk@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2016 15:25:32 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] spi: spi-fsl-dspi: Drop extra spi_master_put in device remove function The call sequence spi_alloc_master/spi_register_master/spi_unregister_master is complete; it reduces the device reference count to zero, which and results in device memory being freed. The subsequent call to spi_master_put is unnecessary and results in an access to free memory. Drop it.
