Subject: [PATCH] BUG: pinmux: forbid mux_usecount to be set at UINT_MAX
Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2013 12:21:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1363864907-28351-1-git-send-email-richard.genoud@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <5149ED25.4010309@wwwdotorg.org>
If pin_free is called on a pin already freed, mux_usecount is set to
UINT_MAX which is really a bad idea.
This will issue a warning, so that we can correct the code responsible
for the double free.

Ok Stephen, your idea (and code) seems better.
I signed-off it, but it's really yours...
