Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2008 14:51:18 +0200 (CEST) From: Stefan Richter <stefanr@...6.in-berlin.de> To: linux1394-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [patch 4/4] firewire: warn on unfinished transactions during card removal After card->done and card->work are completed, any remaining pending request would be a bug. We cannot safely complete a transaction at that point anymore. IOW card users must not drop their last fw_card reference (usually indirect references through fw_device references) before their last outbound transaction through that card was finished.
