Subject: [PATCH] dmaengine: qcom_hidma: remove useless debugfs file removal
Date: Thu, 6 Oct 2016 18:21:29 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1475792489-1415-1-git-send-email-okaya@codeaurora.org> (raw)
Since 'commit acc29fb8f792 ("debugfs: ->d_parent is never NULL or
negative")', HIDMA object removal is no longer working. This is due to
redundant debugfs remove call in hidma_debug_uninit.
debugfs_remove_recursive(dmadev->debugfs);
debugfs_remove_recursive(dmadev->stats);
The first remove is for the directory. Second remove is for the file under
the directory. The directory remove makes file remove invalid.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
