Subject: [PATCH 2/2] spi: fix controller cleanup() documentation
Date: Fri, 10 Apr 2026 17:49:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260410154907.129248-3-johan@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260410154907.129248-1-johan@kernel.org>
The controller cleanup() callback is no longer called when releasing a
device, but rather when deregistering it (and on registration failures).
Fixes: c7299fea6769 ("spi: Fix spi device unregister flow")
