WTF: patch "[PATCH] pinctrl: armada-37xx: Fix gpio interrupt setup" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 4.13-stable tree?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 4.13-stable tree.

I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at
Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.

I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to 
<stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and let me know why this patch should be
applied.  Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be
seen again.

thanks,

greg k-h

Subject: [PATCH] pinctrl: armada-37xx: Fix gpio interrupt setup

Since commit dc749a09ea5e ("gpiolib: allow gpio irqchip to map irqs
dynamically"), the irqs for gpio are not statically allocated during in
gpiochip_irqchip_add.

This driver was based on this assumption for initializing the mask
associated to each interrupt this led to a NULL pointer crash in the
kernel:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

This patch moves the initialization of the mask field in the irq_startup
function. However some callbacks such as irq_set_type and irq_set_wake
could be called before irq_startup. For those functions the mask is
computed at each call which is not a issue as these functions are not
located in a hot path but are used sporadically for configuration.
