commit 3064ef2e88c1629c1e67a77d7bc20020b35846f2 upstream. With CONFIG_PCIE_KIRIN=y and kirin_pcie_remove() marked with __exit, the function is discarded from the driver. In this case a bound device can still get unbound, e.g via sysfs. Then no cleanup code is run resulting in resource leaks or worse. The right thing to do is do always have the remove callback available. This fixes the following warning by modpost: drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-kirin: section mismatch in reference: kirin_pcie_driver+0x8 (section: .data) -> kirin_pcie_remove (section: .exit.text) (with ARCH=x86_64 W=1 allmodconfig).

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
