In commit 376991db4b64 ("driver core: Postpone DMA tear-down until after
devres release"), we changed the ordering of tearing down the device DMA
ops and releasing all the device's resources; this was because the DMA ops
should be maintained until we release the device's managed DMA memories.


Hi all,

A friendly reminder on this patch... I didn't see any update.

I thought that it had some importance.

Thanks,
John

However, we have seen another crash on an arm64 system when a
device driver probe fails:

The crash occurs for the same reason.

In this case, on the really_probe() failure path, we are still clearing
the DMA ops prior to releasing the device's managed memories.

This patch fixes this issue by reordering the DMA ops teardown and the
call to devres_release_all() on the failure path.
