Wysocki" This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled PM / QoS: fix wrong error-checking condition to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email.

Checking just for non-zero return code leads to erroneous setting of the req->dev pointer to NULL, which then leads to a repeated call to dev_pm_qos_add_ancestor_request() in st1232_ts_irq_handler(). This in turn leads to an Oops, when the I2C host adapter is unloaded and reloaded again because of the inconsistent state of its QoS request list.
