[ Upstream commit c13de2386c78e890d4ae6f01a85eefd0b293fb08 ]

Previously, if del_mtd_device() failed with -EBUSY due to a non-zero
usecount, a subsequent call to attempt the deletion again would try to
remove a debugfs directory that had already been removed and panic.
With this change the second call can instead proceed safely.

[ Upstream commit 78e4d342187625585932bb437ec26e1060f7fc6f ]

hisi_spi_nor_probe() invokes clk_disable_unprepare() on all paths after
successful call of clk_prepare_enable(). Besides, the clock is enabled by
hispi_spi_nor_prep() and disabled by hispi_spi_nor_unprep(). So at remove
time it is not possible to have the clock enabled. The patch removes
excessive clk_disable_unprepare() from hisi_spi_nor_remove().

already done in the remove function.

commit 2394e628738933aa014093d93093030f6232946d upstream.

Erasing an AMD linear flash card (AM29F016D) crashes after the first
sector has been erased. Likewise, writing to it crashes after two bytes
have been written. The reason is a missing check for a null pointer -
the cmdset_priv field is not set for this type of card.

[ Upstream commit 076de75de1e53160e9b099f75872c1f9adf41a0b ]

If the callee gpmi_alloc_dma_buffer() failed to alloc memory for
this-&gt;raw_buffer, gpmi_free_dma_buffer() will be called to free
this-&gt;auxiliary_virt. But this-&gt;auxiliary_virt is still a non-NULL
and valid ptr.

Then gpmi_alloc_dma_buffer() returns err and gpmi_free_dma_buffer()
is called again to free this-&gt;auxiliary_virt in err_out. This causes
a double free.

As gpmi_free_dma_buffer() has already called in gpmi_alloc_dma_buffer's
error path, so it should return err directly instead of releasing the dma
buffer again.

qcom_nand_host_init_and_register() is converted to -ENODEV in the case
of failure. This poses issue if -EPROBE_DEFER is returned when the

So let's restructure the error handling logic a bit and return the
actual error code in case of qcom_nand_host_init_and_register() failure.

[ Upstream commit 08608adb520e51403be7592c2214846fa440a23a ]

There are chances that the parse_mtd_partitions() function will return
-EPROBE_DEFER in mtd_device_parse_register(). This might happen when
the dependency is not available for the parser. For instance, on SDX55
the MTD_QCOMSMEM_PARTS parser depends on the QCOM_SMEM driver to parse
the partitions defined in the shared memory region. With the current
flow, the error returned from parse_mtd_partitions() will be discarded
in favor of trying to add the fallback partition.

This will prevent the driver to end up in probe deferred pool and the
partitions won't be parsed even after the QCOM_SMEM driver is available.

Fix this issue by bailing out of mtd_device_parse_register() when
-EPROBE_DEFER error is returned from parse_mtd_partitions() function and
propagate the error code to the driver core for probing later.

Fixes: 5ac67ce36cfe ("mtd: move code adding (registering) partitions to the parse_mtd_partitions()")
