The machine driver fails to probe in next-20181113 with: [ 2.539093] omap-abe-twl6040 sound: ASoC: CODEC DAI twl6040-legacy not registered [ 2.546630] omap-abe-twl6040 sound: devm_snd_soc_register_card() failed: -517 ... [ 3.693206] omap-abe-twl6040 sound: ASoC: Both platform name/of_node are set for TWL6040 [ 3.701446] omap-abe-twl6040 sound: ASoC: failed to init link TWL6040 [ 3.708007] omap-abe-twl6040 sound: devm_snd_soc_register_card() failed: -22 [ 3.715148] omap-abe-twl6040: probe of sound failed with error -22 Bisect pointed to a merge commit: first bad commit: [0f688ab20a540aafa984c5dbd68a71debebf4d7f] Merge remote-tracking branch 'net-next/master' and a diff between a working kernel does not reveal anything which would explain the change in behavior. Further investigation showed that on the second try of loading fails because the dai_link->platform is no longer NULL and it might be pointing to uninitialized memory. The fix is to move the snd_soc_dai_link and snd_soc_card inside of the abe_twl6040 struct, which is dynamically allocated every time the driver probes.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
