Yes, this seems bogus. platform_get_irq() definitely should be removed from spear_smi_remove(). >> clk_disable_unprepare(dev->clk); >> - clk_put(dev->clk); >> - iounmap(dev->io_base); >> - kfree(dev); >> >> smi_base = platform_get_resource(pdev, IORESOURCE_MEM, 0); >> - release_mem_region(smi_base->start, resource_size(smi_base)); >> platform_set_drvdata(pdev, NULL); > > Why do we set platform data to NULL, is this needed? It seems to be common practice to use this call to clear the drvdata in the driver remove function. I have to admit, that I'm not sure if its really needed though.
