From 3a8d54573f9d187779d36d6b45e8e0288b82c31a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonas Gorski Date: Thu, 26 Oct 2017 23:25:44 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] MIPS: AR7: defer registration of GPIO When called from prom init code, ar7_gpio_init() will fail as it will call gpiochip_add() which relies on a working kmalloc() to alloc the gpio_desc array and kmalloc is not useable yet at prom init time. Move ar7_gpio_init() to ar7_register_devices() (a device_initcall) where kmalloc works.
