[ Upstream commit 7b821db95140e2c118567aee22a78bf85f3617e0 ] The kernel produces a warning splat and the DSI device fails to register in this driver if the i2c driver probes, populates child auxiliary devices, and then somewhere in ti_sn_bridge_probe() a function call returns -EPROBE_DEFER. When the auxiliary driver probe defers, the dsi device created by devm_mipi_dsi_device_register_full() is left registered because the devm managed device used to manage the lifetime of the DSI device is the parent i2c device, not the auxiliary device that is being probed. Associate the DSI device created and managed by this driver to the lifetime of the auxiliary device, not the i2c device, so that the DSI device is removed when the auxiliary driver unbinds. Similarly change the device pointer used for dev_err_probe() so the deferred probe errors are associated with the auxiliary device instead of the parent i2c device so we can narrow down future problems faster.

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.
