[PATCH] kernel/resource: Simplify API __devm_release_region() implementation
Posted by Zijun Hu 1 year, 3 months ago 
From: Zijun Hu <quic_zijuhu@quicinc.com>

Simplify __devm_release_region() implementation by dedicated
API devres_release() which have below advantages than current
__release_region() + devres_destroy():

It is simpler if __devm_release_region() is undoing what
__devm_request_region() did, otherwise, it can avoid wrong and
undesired __release_region().

Hi Andrew,

There are no maintainer or supporter for kernel/resource.c according to
get_maintainer.pl.

could you please code review for this patch?

gentle ping (^^) (^^)
sorry for this noise.

linux-next has one more similar fix as below:
