Subject: [PATCHv2 2/4] EDAC/altera: Drop __init from ECC setup paths for re-probe safety
Date: Thu,  6 Aug 2026 10:54:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806155412.1518582-3-dinguyen@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260806155412.1518582-1-dinguyen@kernel.org>

sashiko reports: Does suppressing sysfs unbinding fully prevent the
execution of freed __init memory? If altr_sysmgr_regmap_lookup_by_phandle()
returns -EPROBE_DEFER, the probe is deferred until after __init memory is
freed.

The a10 EDAC .setup callbacks (sdmmc, ethernet, nand, dma, usb, qspi)
and their helpers (altr_init_a10_ecc_device_type,
altr_init_a10_ecc_block) were marked __init. These run from the probe
path, which may execute after init memory is freed -- e.g. a probe
deferred via -EPROBE_DEFER that only succeeds once a late/module
dependency appears, or a manual unbind/rebind. Calling __init code then
dereferences freed memory. Remove __init so these functions remain
valid at runtime.
