Subject: MIPS: BCM63xx: Move bcm63xx_gpio_init() to bcm63xx_register_devices().
To: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Message-ID: <9a195d2d1a1ae559288322adbe2c19a837e31d7e.1431087908.git.ralf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
From: Nicolas Schichan <nschichan@xxxxxxxxxx>
Commit 2ec459f2a77b808c1e5a3616c88b613d3f720c8d upstream.
When called from prom init code, bcm63xx_gpio_init() will fail as it
will call gpiochip_add() which relies on a working kmalloc() to alloc
the gpio_desc array and kmalloc is not useable yet at prom init time.
Move bcm63xx_gpio_init() to bcm63xx_register_devices() (an
arch_initcall) where kmalloc works.
Fixes: 14e85c0e69d5 ("gpio: remove gpio_descs global array")
