Looks like our new CI has given all the answers we need :) which is a
great win for the CI in my opinion.
Take a look at this report :
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/msm/-/jobs/22015361
This issue seems to be because this change
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/169466d4e59ca204683998b7f45673ebf0eb2de6
is missing in our tree.
Without this change, what happens is that we are not hitting the return
0 because we check for ENODEV.
/*
* External bridges are mandatory for eDP interfaces: one has to
* provide at least an eDP panel (which gets wrapped into
panel-bridge).
*
* For DisplayPort interfaces external bridges are optional, so
* silently ignore an error if one is not present (-ENODEV).
*/
rc = dp_parser_find_next_bridge(dp_priv->parser);
if (!dp->is_edp && rc == -ENODEV)
return 0;
So, I think we should do both:
1) Since we are running CI on the tree, backport this change so that
this error path doesnt hit?
2) Add this protection as well because this shows that we can indeed hit
this path in EDEFER cases causing this crash.
Thanks

Avoid clearing irqs and derefernce hw_intr when hw_intr is null.
Presumably this is only the case when the display driver doesn't fully
probe and something probe defers? Can you clarify how this situation
happens?

Fixes: a73033619ea ("drm/msm/dpu: squash dpu_core_irq into
dpu_hw_interrupts")
The fixes tag looks odd. In dpu_core_irq_uninstall() at that commit it
is dealing with 'irq_obj' which isn't a pointer. After commit
f25f656608e3 ("drm/msm/dpu: merge struct dpu_irq into struct
dpu_hw_intr") dpu_core_irq_uninstall() starts using 'hw_intr' which is
allocated on the heap. If we backported this patch to a place that had
a73033619ea without f25f656608e3 it wouldn't make any sense.
I'd agree here. The following tag would be correct:
Fixes: f25f656608e3 ("drm/msm/dpu: merge struct dpu_irq into struct
dpu_hw_intr")
