[PATCH v3 1/2] coresight: Fix clock refcount imbalance on platform remove
From: Jie Gan
Date: Thu Jul 09 2026 - 21:15:52 EST
coresight_get_enable_clocks() enables the programming clock and the
optional AT clock through devm_clk_get_optional_enabled(), which also
registers a devm action to call clk_disable_unprepare() when the driver
detaches.
After probe, pm_runtime_put() allows the device to suspend and the
runtime suspend callback disables the same clocks. During remove the
device is left runtime suspended, so pm_runtime_disable() freezes it
with the clocks already disabled. The devm cleanup that runs afterwards
calls clk_disable_unprepare() a second time, underflowing the clock
enable refcount.
Resume the device with pm_runtime_get_sync() before tearing it down so
the clocks are enabled again and balance the devm-managed disable. Then
pm_runtime_set_suspended() and pm_runtime_put_noidle() leave the device
in a coherent runtime PM state (suspended, usage count balanced) once
the devm action has disabled the clocks.
This affects all CoreSight platform drivers that obtain their clocks
through coresight_get_enable_clocks(): catu, cpu-debug, ctcu, etm4x,
funnel, replicator, stm, tmc and tpiu.
Fixes: 1abc1b212eff ("coresight: Appropriately disable programming clocks")
