From bbcf9af68bfedb3d9cc3c7eae62f5c844d8b78b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wolfram Sang Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2026 09:42:35 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mailbox: mailbox-test: initialize struct earlier The waitqueue must be initialized before the debugfs files are created because from that time, requests from userspace can already be made. Similarily, drvdata and spinlock needs to be initialized before we request the channel, otherwise dangling irqs might run into problems like a NULL pointer exception.
