This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: ravb: Check return value of reset_control_deassert() 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: net-ravb-check-return-value-of-reset_control_deasser.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 e6b63cbea4eb07086adc95fec8197041d0c61762 Author: Claudiu Beznea <claudiu.beznea.uj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 28 10:04:34 2023 +0200 net: ravb: Check return value of reset_control_deassert() [ Upstream commit d8eb6ea4b302e7ff78535c205510e359ac10a0bd ] reset_control_deassert() could return an error. Some devices cannot work if reset signal de-assert operation fails. To avoid this check the return code of reset_control_deassert() in ravb_probe() and take proper action. Along with it, the free_netdev() call from the error path was moved after reset_control_assert() on its own label (out_free_netdev) to free netdev in case reset_control_deassert() fails.
