If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 30c019d382bcedbd75a52effa78679effd174503 Author: Alexander Stein <alexander.stein@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Mar 13 08:18:11 2023 +0100 regmap: cache: Return error in cache sync operations for REGCACHE_NONE [ Upstream commit fd883d79e4dcd2417c2b80756f22a2ff03b0f6e0 ] There is no sense in doing a cache sync on REGCACHE_NONE regmaps. Instead of panicking the kernel due to missing cache_ops, return an error to client driver.
