Summary: multiple insmod of bf5xx_nand.ko panics

Details:

It is only possible to insmod the nand flash driver two times:

#insmod bf5xx_nand.ko

other steps that utilize driver (mount, write file, umount)

#rmmod bf5xx_nand.ko

#insmod bf5xx_nand.ko

other steps that utilize driver (mount, write file, umount)

#rmmod bf5xx_nand.ko

#insmod bf5xx_nand.ko

KERNEL PANIC

It used to panic on the second insmod. This was "fixed" in #4463...now it works twice, but no more than twice! This bug appears to have been tested against bfin_nand module. We are using the bf5xx_nand module.

Kernel was built with 2.6.22.19-ADI-2008R1.5, we sync with this branch each night. We are in sync as of 27 Jan 09.

John:

Thanks for the report - it will be a week or so before anyone can look at this

-- as most of our developers are off for Chinese New Year.
