Subject: [PATCH] i2c: mux: demux-pinctrl: do not deactivate a master that is not active

Attempting to rollback the activation of the current master when
the current master has not been activated is bad. priv->cur_chan
and priv->cur_adap are both still zeroed out and the rollback
may result in attempts to revert an of changeset that has not been
applied and do result in calls to both del and put the zeroed out
i2c_adapter. Maybe it crashes, or whatever, but it's bad in any
case.

Hi!

Either that, or I'm missing something. I found this issue when
reading code, and have made no tests to verify if my analysis
is correct.

Cheers,
Peter

For what it worth, LGTM.

But _this_ code is affected by the problem you describe, or?

237 if (!adap_np) {
238 dev_err(&pdev->dev, "can't get phandle for parent %d\n", i);
239 err = -ENOENT;
240 goto err_rollback;
241 }

But the master is activated?

259 /* switch to first parent as active master */
260 i2c_demux_activate_master(priv, 0);

Or am I missing something? :)

Yes. That is the error path that, if taken, results in the faulty
deactivation. Sorry for not spelling it out...

Cheers,
