The patch titled fix drivers/mfd/ucb1x00-core.c IRQ probing bug has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is fix-drivers-mfd-ucb1x00-corec-irq-probing-bug.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx> While reviewing the IRQ autoprobing code i found the attached buglet. probe_irq_on()/off() calls must always be in pairs, because the generic IRQ code uses a global semaphore to serialize all autoprobing activites. (which does make sense) The ARM code's probe_irq_*() implementation does not do this, but if this driver is ever used on another platform, this bug might bite. (It probably does not trigger in practice, because a zero probing mask returned should be rare - but still.)
