As you can verify in [1], in the probing sequence, the driver core verifies the devres list is empty, which in this case is not because of the devm_ call. > > I believe this is because the platform_profile driver registers the > device as part of it's initialisation in devm_platform_profile_register, > and the thinkpad_acpi driver later fails as the resource is already used. > > Modified thinkpad_acpi so that it has a separate platform driver for the > profile handling, leaving the existing tpacpi_pdev to register > successfully. While this works, it does not address the problem directly. Also it is discouraged to create "fake" platform devices [2]. May I suggest moving tpacpi_pdriver registration before ibm_init() instead, so ibm_init_struct's .init callbacks can use devres?
