[ Upstream commit15ac1122fd] The arbitration of the UART DMA is mishandled for a few exceptional cases when probing and releasing the driver. It is possible that the DMA register spaces are not defined in device tree for an instance of the driver, so attempts to access the registers in brcmuart_arbitration() would use NULL pointers. It is also possible for the probe function to return an error while still holding the UART DMA. This would prevent the UART DMA from being claimed by an instance that could use it. These errors are addressed by only releasing the UART DMA if it is held by this instance (i.e. priv->dma_enabled == 1) and directing early error paths in probe to this common release_dma handling.

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.
