4.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@xxxxxxxxxx> commit e92f0051c0c65d7bee989884a233cfcd80303bdf upstream. The call to spi_master_put() in a3700_spi_remove() is redundant since the master is registered using devm_spi_register_master() and no reference hold by using spi_master_get() in a3700_spi_remove(). This is detected by Coccinelle semantic patch.
