The default console driver (conswitchp) and busy drivers bound to a console (as reported by con_is_bound()) shouldn't be unregistered. System console drivers (without the CON_DRIVER_FLAG_MODULE flag) can be unregistered, provided they are neither default nor busy. The current code checks for the CON_DRIVER_FLAG_INIT flag but this doesn't make sense: this flag is set for a driver whenever its associated console's con_startup() function is called, which first happens when the console driver is registered (so before the console gets bound) and gets cleared when the console gets unbound. The purpose of this flag is to show if we need to call con_startup() on a console before we use it. Based on the above, do_unregister_con_driver() in its current form will allow unregistering a console driver only if it was never bound, but will refuse to unregister one that was bound and later unbound. Fix this by dropping the CON_DRIVER_FLAG_INIT check, allowing unregistering of any console driver provided that it's not the default one and it's not busy. v2: - reword the third paragraph to clarify how the fix works (Peter Hurley) v3: - unchanged v4: - Allow unregistering a system console driver too, needed by i915 to unregister vgacon. Update commit description accordingly.
