This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled spi: dw-dma: decrease reference count in dw_spi_dma_init_mfld() 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: spi-dw-dma-decrease-reference-count-in-dw_spi_dma_in.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 bcfca3135a1642496a31e9dfd7c4b8b01c10459f Author: Xiongfeng Wang <wangxiongfeng2@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Nov 16 17:32:04 2022 +0800 spi: dw-dma: decrease reference count in dw_spi_dma_init_mfld() [ Upstream commit 804313b64e412a81b0b3389a10e7622452004aa6 ] pci_get_device() will increase the reference count for the returned pci_dev. Since 'dma_dev' is only used to filter the channel in dw_spi_dma_chan_filer() after using it we need to call pci_dev_put() to decrease the reference count. Also add pci_dev_put() for the error case.
