The patch titled Subject: revert "rtc: recycle id when unloading a rtc driver" has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was revert-rtc-recycle-id-when-unloading-a-rtc-driver.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: revert "rtc: recycle id when unloading a rtc driver" Revert commit 2830a6d20139df2198d63235df7957712adb28e5 Author: Vincent Palatin <vpalatin@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Oct 4 17:13:52 2012 -0700 rtc: recycle id when unloading a rtc driver We already perform the ida_simple_remove() in rtc_device_release(), which is an appropriate place. 2830a6d20 ("rtc: recycle id when unloading a rtc driver") caused the kernel to emit ida_remove called for id=0 which is not allocated. warnings when rtc_device_release() tries to release an alread-released ID. Let's restore things to their previous state and then work out why Vincent's kernel wasn't calling rtc_device_release() - presumably a bug in a specific sub-driver.
