Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2026 06:49:21 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <sashiko-outbox-170893@kernel.org> (raw)

> lpss8250_probe() calls lpss->board->exit() on its error path. For the
> EHL board, that is ehl_serial_exit() and it does:
> serial8250_get_port(lpss->data.line)->dma = NULL;
>
> But when lpss8250_dma_setup() or serial8250_register_8250_port() fails,
> lpss->data.line was never assigned. As lpss is kzalloc()ed, line is 0
> and ehl_serial_exit() clears the dma pointer of an unrelated port --
> serial8250_ports[0], i.e. ttyS0, which is often the console.
>
> Initialize lpss->data.line to -1 in probe and skip the clearing in
> ehl_serial_exit() if no port was registered.
