Subject: [PATCH] mmc: omap: Fix NULL pointer dereference if mmc_omap_new_slot() fails
Date: Mon, 28 May 2012 03:36:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120528103641.GA12766@atomide.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120528065347.GR17852@atomide.com>

Commit b01a4f1c (mmc: omap: convert to per instance workqueue) initializes
the workqueue too late causing the following:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
pgd = c0004000

Fix this by initializing the workqueue before mmc_omap_remove_slot()
get called. Tested on n770, looks like n800 at least still has some
other issue with MMC.
