This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled dmaengine: ioat: stop mod_timer from resurrecting deleted timer in __cleanup() to the 6.0-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: dmaengine-ioat-stop-mod_timer-from-resurrecting-dele.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.0 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit aca04f28dfaf63985603b860dffd5d8e487e0d73 Author: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Sep 19 09:58:42 2022 -0700 dmaengine: ioat: stop mod_timer from resurrecting deleted timer in __cleanup() [ Upstream commit 898ec89dbb55b8294695ad71694a0684e62b2a73 ] User reports observing timer event report channel halted but no error observed in CHANERR register. The driver finished self-test and released channel resources. Debug shows that __cleanup() can call mod_timer() after the timer has been deleted and thus resurrect the timer. While harmless, it causes suprious error message to be emitted. Use mod_timer_pending() call to prevent deleted timer from being resurrected.
