Message-Id: <1236196382.3140.21.camel@achroite> Date: Wed, 04 Mar 2009 19:53:02 +0000 From: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@...arflare.com> To: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, linux-net-drivers@...arflare.com Subject: [PATCH 4/7] sfc: Clear I2C adapter structure in falcon_remove_nic() i2c_del_adapter() leaves dangling pointers in the structure. If we retry the NIC probe and pass the structure to i2c_add_adapter() again it will lead to an oops unless we clear it first.
