So it's only allmodconfig that would trip it, I guess 0-day isn't doing powerpc allmodconfig builds. >> I squashed this in, which seems to work: ... >> >> void kvmppc_remove_vcpu_debugfs(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) >> { >> - if (vcpu->arch.debugfs_exit_timing) { >> + if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(vcpu->arch.debugfs_exit_timing)) { >> debugfs_remove(vcpu->arch.debugfs_exit_timing); >> vcpu->arch.debugfs_exit_timing = NULL; >> } > > No, this can just be: > debugfs_remove(vcpu->arch.debugfs_exit_timing); > > No need to check anything, just call it and the debugfs code can handle > it just fine. Oh duh, of course, I should have checked. I'd still like to NULL out the debugfs_exit_timing member, so I'll do: void kvmppc_remove_vcpu_debugfs(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) { debugfs_remove(vcpu->arch.debugfs_exit_timing); vcpu->arch.debugfs_exit_timing = NULL; } cheers
