This driver forgets to kill tasklet when probe fails and remove.
Add the calls to fix it.

Yes this driver does look buggy but I think your patch isn't
enough.

The tasklet is schedule by the IRQ handler so you should not kill
it until the IRQ handler has been unregistered.

This driver is also buggy because it registers the IRQ handler
before initialising the tasklet.  You must always be prepared for
spurious IRQs.  IOW, as soon as you register the IRQ handler you
must be prepared for it to be called.

Ditto.

However, the IRQ handler is registered through devm which makes it
hard to kill the tasklet after unregistering it.  We should probably
convert it to a normal request_irq so we can control how it's
unregistered.

Or inversely, registering the tasklet_kill() through devm, so that it
is called *after* the ISR unregistration.

Good Point.  Chuhong, could you please try this approach to see
if it gives us better code?

Thanks,
