This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled watchdog: rti_wdt: Drop runtime pm reference count when watchdog is unused to the 6.6-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: watchdog-rti_wdt-drop-runtime-pm-reference-count-whe.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit a66be732fcb7e4bc00cedcdbc1ffb7563a068322 Author: Vignesh Raghavendra <vigneshr@xxxxxx> Date: Wed Dec 13 19:31:10 2023 +0530 watchdog: rti_wdt: Drop runtime pm reference count when watchdog is unused [ Upstream commit c1a6edf3b541e44e78f10bc6024df779715723f1 ] Call runtime_pm_put*() if watchdog is not already started during probe and re enable it in watchdog start as required. On K3 SoCs, watchdogs and their corresponding CPUs are under same power-domain, so if the reference count of unused watchdogs aren't dropped, it will lead to CPU hotplug failures as Device Management firmware won't allow to turn off the power-domain due to dangling reference count.
