Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: ethernet: davinci_emac: Fix platform_data overwrite
Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2016 10:56:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1461142605-4335-1-git-send-email-narmstrong@baylibre.com> (raw)
When the DaVinci emac driver is removed and re-probed, the actual
pdev->dev.platform_data is populated with an unwanted valid pointer saved by
the previous davinci_emac_of_get_pdata() call, causing a kernel crash when
calling priv->int_disable() in emac_int_disable().
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address c8622a80
...
