This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled i2c: cadence: add IRQ check to the 4.4-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: i2c-cadence-add-irq-check.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 1defd18e9da0284e1a3ab823bdbc36c1be1773ef Author: Sergey Shtylyov <s.shtylyov@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Apr 10 23:14:35 2021 +0300 i2c: cadence: add IRQ check [ Upstream commit 5581c2c5d02bc63a0edb53e061c8e97cd490646e ] The driver neglects to check the result of platform_get_irq()'s call and blithely passes the negative error codes to devm_request_irq() (which takes *unsigned* IRQ #), causing it to fail with -EINVAL, overriding an original error code. Stop calling devm_request_irq() with invalid IRQ #s.
