Huh, after changing some of the hid-picolcd data in order to have less racy
coupling between hid and framebuffer I'm now dying way too often in _mmx_memcpy
and most of the time I don't get a (complete) trace...

The only full trace I got was:

[ 3857.435906] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt

It happens around the time of calling
  device_create_file(dev, &dev_attr_fb_update_rate);
that is, after picolcd_fb_reset(data, 1) has returned but before
calling fb_deferred_io_init(info); according to printk() I put
around the various calls in picolcd_init_framebuffer().

The other case I got part of a trace it was again in _mmx_memcpy()
but the trace output stopped in the middle of register dumping.


The full trace happened after the following sequence:
- system boot
- hotplug of picolcd (triggering modprobe hid-picolcd)
- cd /sys/bus/hid/drivers/hid-picolcd/
- echo 0003:04D8:C002.0003 > unbind
- wait some time
- echo 0003:04D8:C002.0003 > bind

Any idea what it could be? It might be during processing of first
reports send in order to clear the picolcd display.




As (un)binding in hid-picolcd crashes I tried doing so a level above,
at usbhid driver on usb bus which resulted in the following:
- system boot
- hotplug of picolcd (triggering modprobe hid-picolcd)
- cd /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usbhid/
- echo 2-1:1.0 > unbind
- wait some time
- echo 2-1:1.0 > bind
- wait some time
- echo 2-1:1.0 > unbind
produced the following trace:

pretty early during unbind process, e.g. way before picolcd even started to
dispose framebuffer.

Either I'm doing something really wrong or I'm the first one to produce
lots of outbound reports thus exploring corner-cases...

PS: attached is a diff between the hid-picolcd from this patch series to what
I'm testing right now.

Thanks,
Bruno
