From c2c1659b4f8f9e19fe82a4fd06cca4b3d59090ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Petazzoni Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2016 16:48:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] serial: mvebu-uart: free the IRQ in ->shutdown() As suggested by the serial port infrastructure documentation, the IRQ is requested in ->startup(). However, it is never freed in the ->shutdown() hook. With simple systems that open the serial port once for all and always have at least one process that keep the serial port opened, there was no problem. But with a more complicated system (*cough* systemd *cough*), the serial port is opened/closed many times, which at some point no processes having the serial port open at all. Due to this ->startup() gets called again, tries to request_irq() again, which fails.
