Subject: Re: [PATCH] regmap-irq: Use the new num_config_regs property in
 regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode


Hi Yassine,

Whoops... My bad. Actually, d->type_buf shouldn't be accessed in this
configuration, the bug is in regmap_irq_set_type(). The access should
be guarded by "if (d->chip->type_in_mask || d->chip->num_type_reg)" to
prevent the NULL deref.

A chip that uses config regs doesn't need type_buf. If you check
regmap_irq_sync_unlock(), you'll see the contents of type_buf aren't
written to the registers unless num_type_reg > 0.

If type_in_mask is set, type_buf has a completely different meaning.
There are no type registers -- instead each trigger has its own IRQ
enable bit. The type_buf records which bit (= trigger type) is used
for the logical IRQ.

Regards,
Aidan
