+Subject: driver core: safely unbind drivers for devices not on a bus
+Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.44L0.0603311146430.5091-100000@iolanthe.rowland.org>
+
+This patch (as667) changes the __device_release_driver() routine to
+prevent it from crashing when it runs across a device not on any bus.
+This seems logical, inasmuch as the corresponding bus_add_device()
+routine has an explicit check allowing it to accept such devices.
