This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drivers: ethernet: cpsw: fix panic when interrupt coaleceing is set via ethtool to the 5.15-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: drivers-ethernet-cpsw-fix-panic-when-interrupt-coale.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit c277f16e591a9850749971b6f4fdde3c20e1f319 Author: Sondhauß, Jan <Jan.Sondhauss@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Mar 23 08:47:33 2022 +0000 drivers: ethernet: cpsw: fix panic when interrupt coaleceing is set via ethtool [ Upstream commit 2844e2434385819f674d1fb4130c308c50ba681e ] cpsw_ethtool_begin directly returns the result of pm_runtime_get_sync when successful. pm_runtime_get_sync returns -error code on failure and 0 on successful resume but also 1 when the device is already active. So the common case for cpsw_ethtool_begin is to return 1. That leads to inconsistent calls to pm_runtime_put in the call-chain so that pm_runtime_put is called one too many times and as result leaving the cpsw dev behind suspended. The suspended cpsw dev leads to an access violation later on by different parts of the cpsw driver. Fix this by calling the return-friendly pm_runtime_resume_and_get function.
