Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] ACPI: button: Fix ACPI GPE handler leak during removal
Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 16:49:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7954431.EvYhyI6sBW@rafael.j.wysocki> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2046403.PYKUYFuaPT@rafael.j.wysocki>
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
Commit a7e23ec17fee ("ACPI: button: Install notifier for system events
as well") changed the ACPI notify handler type for ACPI buttons to
ACPI_ALL_NOTIFY, but it forgot to update acpi_button_remove() to reflect
that change. This leads to leaking the notify handler past driver
removal, which may cause a kernel crash to occur if ACPI notify on
the given device is triggered after removing the driver, and causes a
subsequent probe of the given device with the same driver to fail.
Address this by updating the acpi_remove_notify_handler() call in
acpi_button_remove() as appropriate.
Fixes: a7e23ec17fee ("ACPI: button: Install notifier for system events as well")
