3.16.7-ckt5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mika Westerberg <mika.westerberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 5b44c53aeb791757072be4a267255cedfff594fd upstream. When a hid driver that uses i2c-hid as transport is unloaded, the hid core will call i2c_hid_stop() which releases all the buffers associated with the device. This includes also the command buffer. Now, when the i2c-hid driver itself is unloaded it tries to power down the device by sending it PWR_SLEEP command. Since the command buffer is already released we get following crash: [ 79.691459] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) [ 79.691532] IP: [<ffffffffa05bc049>] __i2c_hid_command+0x49/0x310 [i2c_hid] ...
