This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled Revert "drm/radeon: hold reference to fences in radeon_sa_bo_new" to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt26. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From 570300978c079a3f64b9957291d119cca865480a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Luis Henriques <luis.henriques@canonical.com> Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2016 13:58:27 +0000 Subject: Revert "drm/radeon: hold reference to fences in radeon_sa_bo_new" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This reverts commit 73187980dfefe5198aadcfdf0a377e461eed2bfa, which was commit f6ff4f67cdf8455d0a4226eeeaf5af17c37d05eb upstream. This patch was triggering a Oops in stable kernel 3.10.99. Christian agrees that the patch is correct but "assumes that radeon_fence_unref() can safely take NULL as the fence which is not the case for older kernels."
