This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled ab8500_btemp: Demote initcall sequence 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. For more information about the 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From f760b9b4513ea6aead0dbf01b4ebbc49420a1d46 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Rajanikanth H.V" <rajanikanth.hv@stericsson.com> Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2013 09:56:45 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] ab8500_btemp: Demote initcall sequence commit eeb0751c99522a4d1bbcc7b6bc1460cd07d07488 upstream. Power supply subsystem creates thermal zone device for the property 'POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_TEMP' which requires thermal subsystem to be ready before 'ab8500 battery temperature monitor' driver is initialized. ab8500 btemp driver is initialized with subsys_initcall whereas thermal subsystem is initialized with fs_initcall which causes thermal_zone_device_register(...) to crash since the required structure 'thermal_class' is not initialized yet: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 000000a4 pgd = c0004000 [000000a4] *pgd=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 Tainted: G W (3.8.0-rc4-00001-g632fda8-dirty #1) PC is at _raw_spin_lock+0x18/0x54 LR is at get_device_parent+0x50/0x1b8 pc : [<c02f1dd0>] lr : [<c01cb248>] psr: 60000013 sp : ef04bdc8 ip : 00000000 fp : c0446180 r10: ef216e38 r9 : c03af5d0 r8 : ef275c18 r7 : 00000000 r6 : c0476c14 r5 : ef275c18 r4 : ef095840 r3 : ef04a000 r2 : 00000001 r1 : 00000000 r0 : 000000a4 Flags: nZCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment kernel Control: 10c5787d Table: 0000404a DAC: 00000015 Process swapper/0 (pid: 1, stack limit = 0xef04a238) Stack: (0xef04bdc8 to 0xef04c000) [...] [<c02f1dd0>] (_raw_spin_lock+0x18/0x54) from [<c01cb248>] (get_device_parent+0x50/0x1b8) [<c01cb248>] (get_device_parent+0x50/0x1b8) from [<c01cb8d8>] (device_add+0xa4/0x574) [<c01cb8d8>] (device_add+0xa4/0x574) from [<c020b91c>] (thermal_zone_device_register+0x118/0x938) [<c020b91c>] (thermal_zone_device_register+0x118/0x938) from [<c0202030>] (power_supply_register+0x170/0x1f8) [<c0202030>] (power_supply_register+0x170/0x1f8) from [<c02055ec>] (ab8500_btemp_probe+0x208/0x47c) [<c02055ec>] (ab8500_btemp_probe+0x208/0x47c) from [<c01cf0dc>] (platform_drv_probe+0x14/0x18) [<c01cf0dc>] (platform_drv_probe+0x14/0x18) from [<c01cde70>] (driver_probe_device+0x74/0x20c) [<c01cde70>] (driver_probe_device+0x74/0x20c) from [<c01ce094>] (__driver_attach+0x8c/0x90) [<c01ce094>] (__driver_attach+0x8c/0x90) from [<c01cc640>] (bus_for_each_dev+0x4c/0x80) [<c01cc640>] (bus_for_each_dev+0x4c/0x80) from [<c01cd6b4>] (bus_add_driver+0x16c/0x23c) [<c01cd6b4>] (bus_add_driver+0x16c/0x23c) from [<c01ce54c>] (driver_register+0x78/0x14c) [<c01ce54c>] (driver_register+0x78/0x14c) from [<c00086ac>] (do_one_initcall+0xfc/0x164) [<c00086ac>] (do_one_initcall+0xfc/0x164) from [<c02e89c8>] (kernel_init+0x120/0x2b8) [<c02e89c8>] (kernel_init+0x120/0x2b8) from [<c000e358>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x3c) Code: e3c3303f e5932004 e2822001 e5832004 (e1903f9f) ---[ end trace ed9df72941b5bada ]--- Signed-off-by: Rajanikanth H.V <rajanikanth.hv@stericsson.com> Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <anton@enomsg.org> Signed-off-by: Luis Henriques <luis.henriques@canonical.com> --- drivers/power/ab8500_btemp.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) -- 1.8.1.2
