[PATCH 4.18 107/235] ipmi: Fix I2C client removal in the SSIF driver

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

 



4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Corey Minyard <cminyard@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0745dde62835be7e2afe62fcdb482fcad79cb743 upstream.

The SSIF driver was removing any client that came in through the
platform interface, but it should only remove clients that it
added.  On a failure in the probe function, this could result
in the following oops when the driver is removed and the
client gets unregistered twice:

So track the clients that the SSIF driver adds and only remove
those.
