Hi,

I am writing an I2C touchscreen driver for an i.MX6 based board. I
compiled it as a module and when I unload it, I get the following warning:

# modprobe sx8654
[   46.261494] input: SX8654 I2C Touchscreen as
/devices/soc0/soc/2100000.aips-bus/21a0000.i2c/i2c-0/0-0048/input/input1
# rmmod sx8654

'irq/208', leaking at least 'sx8654'

...

When I revert commit e4df3a0 (i2c: core: Dispose OF IRQ mapping at
client removal time) I don't get the warning.

Is this a bug in the i2c-core or am I doing something wrong in my driver?

Yes, this commit breaks all drivers using devm* for IRQ management on
OF-based systemsi because devm* cleanup happens in device code, after
bus's remove() method returns. I'd recommend reverting and finding a
better way (making cleanup a custom devm action as well?).

Thanks.
