This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled spi: ath79: remove spi-master setup and cleanup assignment to the 5.12-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: spi-ath79-remove-spi-master-setup-and-cleanup-assign.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.12 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 6ad25460b9fb244858643a1c8cc0facfefd3a367 Author: David Bauer <mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Mar 3 17:08:37 2021 +0100 spi: ath79: remove spi-master setup and cleanup assignment [ Upstream commit ffb597b2bd3cd78b9bfb68f536743cd46dbb2cc4 ] This removes the assignment of setup and cleanup functions for the ath79 target. Assigning the setup-method will lead to 'setup_transfer' not being assigned in spi_bitbang_init. Because of this, performing any TX/RX operation will lead to a kernel oops. Also drop the redundant cleanup assignment, as it's also assigned in spi_bitbang_init.
