After we remove a GPIO chip that still has some requested descriptors, gpiod_free_commit() will fail and we will never put the references to the GPIO device and the owning module in gpiod_free(). Rework this function to: - not warn on desc == NULL as this is a use-case on which most free functions silently return - put the references to desc->gdev and desc->gdev->owner unconditionally so that the release callback actually gets called when the remaining references are dropped by external GPIO users Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>
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.
