Subject: RE: [PATCH 1/2] mtd: use refcount to prevent corruption
Dear All,
I am sorry for reopening this topic, but as it turns out (after bisecting
linux-next/master) this patch is interfering with a use case I am working
on.
I am using a Renesas RZ/V2M EVK v2.0 platform, I have an SPI NOR memory
("micron,mt25ql256a") wired up to a connector on the platform, the SPI
master is using driver (built as module):
drivers/spi/spi-rzv2m-csi.c
Although the board device tree in mainline does not reflect the connection
of CSI4 (which is the SPI master) from the SoC to the "micron,mt25ql256a"
(SPI slave device), my local device tree comes with the necessary definitions.
Without this patch, when I load up the module, I get the below 3 devices:
/dev/mtd0
/dev/mtd0ro
/dev/mtdblock0
They get cleaned up correctly upon module removal.
I can reload the same module, and everything works just fine.
With this patch applied, when I load up the module, I get the same 3
devices:
/dev/mtd0
/dev/mtd0ro
/dev/mtdblock0
Upon removal, the below 2 devices still hang around:
/dev/mtd0
/dev/mtd0ro
Preventing the module from being (re)loaded correctly:
rzv2m_csi a4020200.spi: error -EBUSY: register controller failed
rzv2m_csi: probe of a4020200.spi failed with error -16
Are you guys aware of this sort of side effect?
Thanks,
Fab
