This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled spi: imx: Don't skip cleanup in remove's error path to the 5.4-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-imx-don-t-skip-cleanup-in-remove-s-error-path.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit ca27eb15976c4e9cc19355dcc1b41b4f39d4479e Author: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Mar 6 07:57:32 2023 +0100 spi: imx: Don't skip cleanup in remove's error path [ Upstream commit 11951c9e3f364d7ae3b568a0e52c8335d43066b5 ] Returning early in a platform driver's remove callback is wrong. In this case the dma resources are not released in the error path. this is never retried later and so this is a permanent leak. To fix this, only skip hardware disabling if waking the device fails.
