This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: don't use devres for mdiobus to the 5.10-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: net-dsa-mv88e6xxx-don-t-use-devres-for-mdiobus.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 136e75be10e98fbcbfa275ed9832f214e1b864a3 Author: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon Feb 7 18:15:47 2022 +0200 net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: don't use devres for mdiobus [ Upstream commit f53a2ce893b2c7884ef94471f170839170a4eba0 ] As explained in commits: 74b6d7d13307 ("net: dsa: realtek: register the MDIO bus under devres") 5135e96a3dd2 ("net: dsa: don't allocate the slave_mii_bus using devres") mdiobus_free() will panic when called from devm_mdiobus_free() <- devres_release_all() <- __device_release_driver(), and that mdiobus was not previously unregistered. The mv88e6xxx is an MDIO device, so the initial set of constraints that I thought would cause this (I2C or SPI buses which call ->remove on ->shutdown) do not apply. But there is one more which applies here. If the DSA master itself is on a bus that calls ->remove from ->shutdown (like dpaa2-eth, which is on the fsl-mc bus), there is a device link between the switch and the DSA master, and device_links_unbind_consumers() will unbind the Marvell switch driver on shutdown. systemd-shutdown[1]: Powering off. mv88e6085 0x0000000008b96000:00 sw_gl0: Link is Down fsl-mc dpbp.9: Removing from iommu group 7 fsl-mc dpbp.8: Removing from iommu group 7 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c:677!

The Marvell driver already has a good structure for mdiobus removal, so just plug in mdiobus_free and get rid of devres.
