Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2015 15:23:27 +0300 From: Roger Quadros <rogerq@...com> To: <mathias.nyman@...el.com> CC: <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, <linux-usb@...r.kernel.org>, <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, Roger Quadros <rogerq@...com> Subject: [PATCH 3/5] usb: xhci: Allow usb_add/remove_hcd() to be called repeatedly Don't set xhci->shared_hcd to NULL in xhci_stop() as we have still not de-allocated it. It was resulting in a NULL pointer de-reference if usb_add/remove_hcd() is called repeatedly. We want repeated add/remove to work for the OTG use case.
