This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled pwm: jz4740: Don't use dev_err_probe() in .request() to the 5.10-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: pwm-jz4740-don-t-use-dev_err_probe-in-.request.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 9320fc509b87b4d795fb37112931e2f4f8b5c55f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Uwe=20Kleine-K=C3=B6nig?= <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 6 Jan 2024 15:13:03 +0100 Subject: pwm: jz4740: Don't use dev_err_probe() in .request() MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 9320fc509b87b4d795fb37112931e2f4f8b5c55f upstream. dev_err_probe() is only supposed to be used in probe functions. While it probably doesn't hurt, both the EPROBE_DEFER handling and calling device_set_deferred_probe_reason() are conceptually wrong in the request callback. So replace the call by dev_err() and a separate return statement. This effectively reverts commit c0bfe9606e03 ("pwm: jz4740: Simplify with dev_err_probe()").
