This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

iio:chemical:ccs811: rearrange iio trigger get and register

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git in the char-misc-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

From d710359c0b445e8c03e24f19ae2fb79ce7282260 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Rokosov DDRokosov@sberdevices.ru Date: Tue, 24 May 2022 18:14:45 +0000 Subject: iio:chemical:ccs811: rearrange iio trigger get and register

IIO trigger interface function iio_trigger_get() should be called after iio_trigger_register() (or its devm analogue) strictly, because of iio_trigger_get() acquires module refcnt based on the trigger->owner pointer, which is initialized inside iio_trigger_register() to THIS_MODULE. If this call order is wrong, the next iio_trigger_put() (from sysfs callback or "delete module" path) will dereference "default" module refcnt, which is incorrect behaviour.
