This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: fec: introduce fec_ptp_stop and use in probe fail path to the 3.18-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: net-fec-introduce-fec_ptp_stop-and-use-in-probe-fail-path.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.18 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 32cba57ba74be58589aeb4cb6496183e46a5e3e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lucas Stach <l.stach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2015 16:06:20 +0200 Subject: net: fec: introduce fec_ptp_stop and use in probe fail path From: Lucas Stach <l.stach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 32cba57ba74be58589aeb4cb6496183e46a5e3e5 upstream. This function frees resources and cancels delayed work item that have been initialized in fec_ptp_init(). Use this to do proper error handling if something goes wrong in probe function after fec_ptp_init has been called.
