Title:
  Kernel BUG @of/base.c:251 during attach-device operation on Ubuntu
  14.10 LE guest

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Trusty:
  Invalid
Status in “linux” source package in Utopic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  -- Problem Description --
  Trying to dynamically add a network device of type virtio to a Ubuntu 14.10 guest running on PowerKVM generates a kernel BUG message. Virsh reports the operation as successful.

  Steps to recreate the problem :

  1) Install 14.10 as a Power KVM guest.
  2) Install ppc64-diag package

  librtas1                  1.3.10-1                     ppc64el      userspace RTAS library
  librtasevent1        1.3.10-1                     ppc64el      RTAS events library
  ppc64-diag           2.6.6-0ubuntu1               ppc64el      Platform error log analysis tool and rtas_errd daemon
  libservicelog-1.1-1:ppc64el        1.1.14-0ubuntu1              ppc64el      Library to create and maintain a database for storing events
  servicelog             1.1.12-0ubuntu1              ppc64el      Platform Service/Error Message Database

  3) Using a network device definition as mentioned below try a virsh
  attach-device operation

  On the PowerKVM host :

  # cat net
  <interface type='bridge'>
     <mac address='52:54:00:A0:9D:9a'/>
     <source bridge='virbr0'/>
     <model type='virtio'/>
  </interface>

  # virsh attach-device ss_1410_1 net
  Device attached successfully

  #

  Following kernel BUG is observed on the guest

  The BUG_ON() it is hitting is likely this one:

  int of_node_add(struct device_node *np)
  {
  	int rc = 0;

          BUG_ON(!of_node_is_initialized(np));

  This appears to be related to commit
  75b57ecf9d1d1e17d099ab13b8f48e6e038676be.

  This was part of the updates that Grant did to move the device tree
  from /proc/to sysfs. As part of this he removed the kref_init call we
  made prior to adding the device node.

  Attached patch "powerpc/pseries: dynamically added OF nodes need to
  call of_node_init"

  With the attach patch, the attach/detach device operation works
  correctly. No kernel BUG is observed.
