[ Upstream commit6a3ff85891] A problem about 8250_bcm7271 create debugfs failed is triggered with the following log given: [ 324.516635] debugfs: Directory 'bcm7271-uart' with parent '/' already present! The reason is that brcmuart_init() returns platform_driver_register() directly without checking its return value, if platform_driver_register() failed, it returns without destroy the newly created debugfs, resulting the debugfs of 8250_bcm7271 can never be created later. brcmuart_init() debugfs_create_dir() # create debugfs directory platform_driver_register() driver_register() bus_add_driver() priv = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened # return without destroy debugfs directory Fix by removing debugfs when platform_driver_register() returns error.

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.
