Commit Message

If a PCA953x gpio was used as an interrupt and then released,
the shutdown function was trying to extract the pca953x_chip
pointer directly from the irq_data, but in reality was getting
the gpio_chip structure.

The net effect was that the subsequent writes to the data
structure corrupted data in the gpio_chip structure, which wasn't
immediately obvious until attempting to use the GPIO again in the
future, at which point the kernel panics.

This fix correctly extracts the pca953x_chip structure via the
gpio_chip structure, as is correctly done in the other irq
functions.

Fixes: 0a70fe00efea ("gpio: pca953x: Clear irq trigger type on irq shutdown")

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the
stable kernel tree.  Please read:
    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html
for how to do this properly.

Hi Greg,

Apologies, I'm pretty new to submitting patches to the kernel.

Is it just a case of needing to move the CC: stable@vger.kernel.org line to the sign-off area?

As far as I can tell it meets all of the other requirements (with the exception of not being in the upstream).

Thanks,

Mark

Yes, that's what the documentation says to do, correct?
