This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled memory: omap-gpmc: allow probe of child nodes to fail to the 4.7-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: memory-omap-gpmc-allow-probe-of-child-nodes-to-fail.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.7 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 23540d6e2f3193b946c4de43e3f9654fa6d23fe7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 24 Jul 2016 14:10:58 +0200 Subject: memory: omap-gpmc: allow probe of child nodes to fail From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 23540d6e2f3193b946c4de43e3f9654fa6d23fe7 upstream. A recent commit (inadvertently?) changed how failed probe of a gpmc child node was handled. Instead of proceeding with setting up any other children as before, a single error now aborts the whole process. This change broke networking on some Overo boards due to probe failing for an unrelated nand node. This second issue should obviously be fixed, but let's restore the old behaviour of allowing child-node probe to fail to avoid further similar breakage on other systems.
