Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] phy: qcom: qmp-combo: skip USB power_off/exit after device teardown
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 18:09:32 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260521010935.1333494-2-mike.scott@oss.qualcomm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260521010935.1333494-1-mike.scott@oss.qualcomm.com>
qmp_combo_usb_power_off() is reachable from an external consumer
(notably dwc3 via phy_exit() during driver unbind) after this device's
backing resources have already been released along a separate teardown
chain. The dereference of qmp->pcs (whose ioremap mapping has been
freed by devm cleanup) then takes a level-3 translation fault and
oopses.
Easily reproducible during testing of USB-C role-switch enablement on
Dell Latitude 7455 (X1E80100), by writing "none" to a USB-C DWC3's
usb_role_switch role attribute, e.g.
echo none > /sys/class/usb_role/a800000.usb-role-switch/role
which triggers the chain:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff8000876c5400
pc : qmp_combo_usb_power_off.isra.0+0x58/0x470 [phy_qcom_qmp_combo]
Call trace:

qmp_combo_usb_exit+0x38/0x90 [phy_qcom_qmp_combo]

Two WARNs precede the oops from the same teardown chain, confirming
the resource ordering:
WARNING: drivers/clk/clk.c:4494 at clk_nodrv_disable_unprepare+0x8/0x18
WARNING: drivers/regulator/core.c:2657 at _regulator_put+0x84/0x98
i.e. the pipe clock provider has been unregistered and the regulators
released before qmp_combo_usb_power_off() runs.
The proper long-term fix is a teardown-ordering rework so the QMP
PHY's backing resources outlive any consumer that may still call its
phy_ops. Pending that, guard the power_off/exit paths with the
existing usb_init_count balance so re-entry after teardown does not
oops. usb_init_count tracks the balance of usb_power_on/off; if it
is zero we have either never powered on or have already powered off,
and there is nothing to do.
The same guard is added to qmp_combo_usb_exit() since it is the entry
point used by external consumers via phy_exit().
