Revision 7eeecc4b1f480c7ba1932cb9a7693f8c452640f2 authored by Samuel Holland on 03 January 2021, 11:17:41 UTC, committed by David S. Miller on 06 January 2021, 00:32:07 UTC
stmmac_pltfr_remove does three things in one function, making it
inapproprate for unwinding the steps in the probe function. Currently,
a failure before the call to stmmac_dvr_probe would leak OF node
references due to missing a call to stmmac_remove_config_dt. And an
error in stmmac_dvr_probe would cause the driver to attempt to remove a
netdevice that was never added. Fix these by reordering the init and
splitting out the error handling steps.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
