Subject: greybus: protocol: warn on bad deregistration
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=78033844daa64c83d91dca73eb1fbcae56c42fac;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

greybus: protocol: warn on bad deregistration

A protocol should be deregistered exactly once when the protocol module
is being unloaded. This means that protocol deregister will never be
called with active users as we take a module reference when looking up a
protocol.

Remove comment suggesting that we could one day forcefully stop a user
of a protocol, and issue a big warning if a protocol is deregistered
more than once or at some other time than during module unload (e.g.
with active users).
