This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled gpio: mvebu: make mvchip->irqbase signed for error handling to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.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-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.15. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 580f2a38a5fc75afaa2f4767715c160685821dae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2013 10:50:19 +0300 Subject: gpio: mvebu: make mvchip->irqbase signed for error handling commit d535922691fc026479fcc03e78ac3d931a54e75a upstream. There is a bug in mvebu_gpio_probe() where we do: mvchip->irqbase = irq_alloc_descs(-1, 0, ngpios, -1); if (mvchip->irqbase < 0) { The problem is that mvchip->irqbase is unsigned so the error handling doesn't work. I have changed it to be a regular int.
