commit b9dd3f6d417258ad0beeb292a1bc74200149f15d upstream.
The BCM2835aux SPI driver uses devm_spi_register_master() on bind.
As a consequence, on unbind, __device_release_driver() first invokes
bcm2835aux_spi_remove() before unregistering the SPI controller via
devres_release_all().
This order is incorrect: bcm2835aux_spi_remove() turns off the SPI
controller, including its interrupts and clock. The SPI controller
is thus no longer usable.
When the SPI controller is subsequently unregistered, it unbinds all
its slave devices. If their drivers need to access the SPI bus,
e.g. to quiesce their interrupts, unbinding will fail.
As a rule, devm_spi_register_master() must not be used if the
->remove() hook performs teardown steps which shall be performed
after unbinding of slaves.
Fix by using the non-devm variant spi_register_master(). Note that the
struct spi_master as well as the driver-private data are not freed until
after bcm2835aux_spi_remove() has finished, so accessing them is safe.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
