commit f4e6960f4f16b1ca5da16cec7612ecc86402ac05 upstream. Commit c3963bc0a0cf ("hwmon: (nct6775) Split core and platform driver") introduced a slight change in nct6775_suspend() in order to avoid an otherwise-needless symbol export for nct6775_update_device(), replacing a call to that function with a simple dev_get_drvdata() instead. As it turns out, there is no guarantee that nct6775_update_device() is ever called prior to suspend. If this happens, the resume function ends up writing bad data into the various chip registers, which results in a crash shortly after resume. To fix the problem, just add the symbol export and return to using nct6775_update_device() as was employed previously.

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.
