From: Linus Walleij <redacted> [ Upstream commit 94e9bc73d85aa6ecfe249e985ff57abe0ab35f34 ] This turns the IXP4xx GPIO irqchip into an immutable irqchip, a bit different from the standard template due to being hierarchical. Tested on the IXP4xx which uses drivers/ata/pata_ixp4xx_cf.c for a rootfs on compact flash with IRQs from this GPIO block to the CF ATA controller.

The required dependencies are only in 5,19, and are definitely NOT a stable candidate... This isn't a fix by any stretch of the imagination.Hi Marc, While I didn't mark it for stable (and it shouldn't go into any branch earlier than 5.19.x), I did send the patches making the irqchips immutable to Linus Torvalds as fixes as they technically do *fix* the warning emitted by gpiolib and make the implementation correct. I think these patches should still be part of the v5.19.x stable branch.
Yes, and as far as I see we are taking those fixes too. -- Thanks, Sasha _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
