WTF: patch "[PATCH] gpio: em: remove the gpiochip before removing the irq domain" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 5.2-stable tree?

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

 



The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 5.2-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] gpio: em: remove the gpiochip before removing the irq domain

In commit 8764c4ca5049 ("gpio: em: use the managed version of
gpiochip_add_data()") we implicitly altered the ordering of resource
freeing: since gpiochip_remove() calls gpiochip_irqchip_remove()
internally, we now can potentially use the irq_domain after it was
destroyed in the remove() callback (as devm resources are freed after
remove() has returned).

Use devm_add_action_or_reset() to keep the ordering right and entirely
kill the remove() callback in the driver.
