This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled coresight: trbe: remove cpuhp instance node before remove cpuhp state 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: coresight-trbe-remove-cpuhp-instance-node-before-rem.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 a37b44803bb94302a2b67f3a18efc4d55cc8f61a Author: Yang Shen <shenyang39@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 22 17:03:55 2022 +0800 coresight: trbe: remove cpuhp instance node before remove cpuhp state [ Upstream commit 20ee8c223f792947378196307d8e707c9cdc2d61 ] cpuhp_state_add_instance() and cpuhp_state_remove_instance() should be used in pairs. Or there will lead to the warn on cpuhp_remove_multi_state() since the cpuhp_step list is not empty. The following is the error log with 'rmmod coresight-trbe': Error: Removing state 215 which has instances left.
