Subject: [PATCH] pcmcia/serial release of memory I/O twice
Date: Wed, 03 Mar 2004 11:59:42 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1078325981.3296.16.camel@laptop> (raw)

I am using a pcmcia modem (linux-2.6.3) and when I unplug the
card the kernel warms:
"kernel: Trying to free nonexistent resource <000003e8-000003ef>"

The I/O address is allocated by pcmcia_request_io and released by
serial8250_release_port and pcmcia_release_io.

The allocation of I/O address is done in:
module serial_cs:
  simple_config:
    pcmcia_request_io  ---> allocate I/O address
    setup_serial ... serial8250_request_port --> doesn't allocate I/O
                     because flag UPF_RESOURCES is not set.

The release of I/O address is done in:
module serial_cs:
  serial_remove:
    unregister_serial ... serial8250_release_port ---> release I/O
    pcmcia_release_io ---> release again the I/O

I suggest the patch bellow:
"serial8250_release_port undo only what serial8250_request_port does"
