This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled serial: 8250: Fix oops for port->pm on uart_change_pm() to the 6.1-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: serial-8250-fix-oops-for-port-pm-on-uart_change_pm.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit eb9453618f879f6283df59de41a4c7e2e2648117 Author: Tony Lindgren <tony@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Aug 4 16:15:51 2023 +0300 serial: 8250: Fix oops for port->pm on uart_change_pm() [ Upstream commit dfe2aeb226fd5e19b0ee795f4f6ed8bc494c1534 ] Unloading a hardware specific 8250 driver can produce error "Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address" about ten seconds after unloading the driver. This happens on uart_hangup() calling uart_change_pm(). Turns out commit 04e82793f068 ("serial: 8250: Reinit port->pm on port specific driver unbind") was only a partial fix. If the hardware specific driver has initialized port->pm function, we need to clear port->pm too. Just reinitializing port->ops does not do this. Otherwise serial8250_pm() will call port->pm() instead of serial8250_do_pm().
