patch "drivers core: Fix oops when driver probe fails" added to driver-core-linus

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

drivers core: Fix oops when driver probe fails

to my driver-core git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core.git
in the driver-core-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: drivers core: Fix oops when driver probe fails

dma_range_map is freed to early, which might cause an oops when a driver probe fails.

 Call trace:

This issue is introduced by commit d0243bbd5dd3 ("drivers core:
Free dma_range_map when driver probe failed"). It frees dma_range_map before the call to devres_release_all, which is too early. The solution is to free dma_range_map only after devres_release_all.
