If an error occurs during the initialization in emac_dev_open() (the driver's ndo_open function), interrupts, DMA descriptors etc. must be freed. The current rollback code is buggy in several ways. 1) Freeing the interrupts. The current code will not free all interrupts that were requested by the driver. Furthermore, the code tries to do a platform_get_resource(priv->pdev, IORESOURCE_IRQ, -1) in its last iteration. This patch fixes these bugs. 2) Wrong order of err: and rollback: labels. If the setup of the PHY in the code fails, the interrupts that have been requested before are not freed: request irq if requesting irqs fails, goto rollback setup phy if phy setup fails, goto err return 0 rollback: free irqs err: This patch brings the code into the correct order. 3) The code calls napi_enable() and emac_int_enable(), but does not undo both in case of an error. This patch adds calls of emac_int_disable() and napi_disable() to the rollback code. 4) RX DMA descriptors are not freed in case of an error: Right before requesting the irqs, the function creates DMA descriptors for the RX channel. These RX descriptors are never freed when we jump to either rollback or err. This patch adds code for freeing the DMA descriptors in the case of an initialization error. This required a modification of cpdma_ctrl_stop() in davinci_cpdma.c: We must be able to call this function to free the DMA descriptors while the DMA channels are in IDLE state (before cpdma_ctlr_start() was called).
