Can you please send follow patches for these: - don't recall if I pointed earlier, but can we use direct conversion for calculating convert_burst() and convert_buswidth(), latter one at least seem doableOk. Do you still want the error reporting for the invalid width and burst size?I think for convert_buswidth() we can do away with a switch case and convert the numbers directlyWell, it's already using a switch. Do you want me to remove completely the function and move the switch where it's used? It's used two times now, so I'd like to avoid duplicating it.
You can probably remove switch in these function by converting them arithmetically..

- don't use devm_request_irq(). You have irq enabled and you have killed tasklet. This is too racy. You need to ensure no irqs can be generated before killing tasklets.Ok, would calling disable_irq before killing the tasklet an option for you ? that would allow to keep the devm_request_irq.disable_irq also does syncronize, so it might work. But then again if the probe fails after registering irq due to some other reason, and you get into races with unitialized driver as well. I think it might be easier to amnge by working with plain old request_irq()Yes, devm_free_irq like Russell suggested seems to both address your concerns, while not having to care about it at probe.
OK, pls send the fix -- ~Vinod -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
