As soon as the interrupt has been enabled by devm_request_irq(), the interrupt routine may be called, depending on the current status of the hardware. However, at that point rcar_thermal_common hasn't been initialized complely yet. E.g. rcar_thermal_common.base is still NULL, causing a NULL pointer dereference: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000c pgd = c0004000 [0000000c] *pgd=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] SMP ARM CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.19.0-rc7-ape6evm-04564-gb6e46cb7cbe82389 #30 Hardware name: Generic R8A73A4 (Flattened Device Tree) task: ee8953c0 ti: ee896000 task.ti: ee896000 PC is at rcar_thermal_irq+0x1c/0xf0 LR is at _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x48/0x54 Postpone the call to devm_request_irq() until all initialization has been done to fix this. Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@glider.be> Acked-by: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@renesas.com> --- This triggers sporadically on r8a73a4/ape6evm when starting a new kernel after a soft power-on reset. So far I couldn't trigger it on r8a7791/koelsch, not even by adding a delay just after the call to devm_request_irq(). Probably none of the reboot methods on koelsch are sufficiently "soft" (da9063-watchdog power-cycles the da9063 regulator, reset button resets the r2a11302 regulator, even rwdt-restart on SMP=n seems fine) v2: - Add Acked-by. --- drivers/thermal/rcar_thermal.c | 22 +++++++++------------- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-)
