Subject: [PATCH] firmware: arm_ffa: Tear down driver during shutdown
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 14:11:12 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901131112.3437516-1-sudeep.holla@kernel.org> (raw)
The platform core invokes a driver's shutdown callback, rather than its
remove callback, while preparing devices for a normal kexec. Without a
shutdown callback, the FF-A driver leaves notifications, partition devices,
and the RX/TX mapping active before the replacement kernel is booted.
Use ffa_remove() for shutdown so the existing cleanup runs before a normal
kexec and other orderly system shutdowns.
