This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled can: m_can: m_can_stop(): set device to software init mode before closing to the 5.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: can-m_can-m_can_stop-set-device-to-software-init-mod.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit f197875fbe528311cd6d1ada635600d66038c00c Author: Faiz Abbas <faiz_abbas@xxxxxx> Date: Tue Aug 25 11:24:42 2020 +0530 can: m_can: m_can_stop(): set device to software init mode before closing [ Upstream commit a584e9bc1b7e88f24f8504886eafbe6c73d8a97c ] There might be some requests pending in the buffer when the interface close sequence occurs. In some devices, these pending requests might lead to the module not shutting down properly when m_can_clk_stop() is called. Therefore, move the device to init state before potentially powering it down.
