This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb: cdns3: imx: fix can't create core device the second time issue to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 2ef02b846ee2526249a562a66d6dcb25fcbca9d8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Chen <peter.chen@xxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2020 21:31:37 +0800 Subject: usb: cdns3: imx: fix can't create core device the second time issue The cdns3 core device is populated by calling of_platform_populate, the flag OF_POPULATED is set for core device node, if this flag is not cleared, when calling of_platform_populate the second time after loading parent module again, the OF code will not try to create platform device for core device. To fix it, it uses of_platform_depopulate to depopulate the core device which the parent created, and the flag OF_POPULATED for core device node will be cleared accordingly.
