[Resend][PATCH] PCI / Hotplug: Fix unexpected driver unregister in pciehp_acpi.c

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Sat Dec 18 2010 - 07:31:02 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx>

If pcie_ports_disabled is set, pcie_port_service_register() returns
error code and select_detection_mode() should not attempt to
unregister dummy_driver and use dummy_slots. It should return
PCIEHP_DETECT_ACPI immediately instead.

Hi Jesse,

I'm not sure if you've got this patch. It fixes a problem introduced in the
2.6.37 merge window, so I guess it should be merged before 2.6.37 final.

Details in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20232#c23 .

Thanks,
Rafael
