The pairwise api invocation of tty_port_register_device should be tty_port_unregister_device, other than tty_unregister_device.
Are you sure about that? Please explain why you think this to be the case and why this change is needed.
I am sure about this.
1. From the implementation, tty_port_register_device -> tty_port_register_device_attr -> tty_port_link_device; tty_register_device_attr tty_register_device -> tty_register_device_attr
tty_port_unregister_device -> serdev_tty_port_unregister; tty_unregister_device tty_unregister_device
As to the functionability, tty_port_register_device pairs with tty_port_unregister_device; meanwhile, the same to tty_register_device and tty_unregister_device.
2. From the function naming style,
tty_port_register_device - tty_port_unregister_device; tty_register_device - tty_unregister_device
Fixes: a6afd9f3e819 ("tty: move a number of tty drivers from drivers/char/ to drivers/tty/")
Please try a little harder, that's clearly not the commit that changed to the port registration helper.
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Why do you think this is stable material? (hint: it is not)
From the documentation, this label could make the patch automatically
go to stable tree. And stable tree is also using the incorrect api.
If I have any misunderstanding, please let me know.
