I have just tested with this:
+void cxl_memdev_remove(void *_cxlmd)
+{
+ struct cxl_memdev *cxlmd = _cxlmd;
+ struct device *dev = &cxlmd->dev;
+
+ devm_remove_action_nowarn(cxlmd->cxlds->dev, cxl_memdev_unregister,
+ cxlmd);
+
+ cdev_device_del(&cxlmd->cdev, dev);
+ cxl_memdev_shutdown(dev);
+ put_device(dev);
+}
+EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(cxl_memdev_remove, "CXL");
only called if the ioremap fails.
Please, let me know if you like this approach before sending another
version.
Thank you
