Subject: [PATCH] nvmem: core: fix GPIO descriptor resource leak
Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2025 00:55:26 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251028165526.534-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)
The driver calls gpiod_get_optional() in nvmem_register() but never
calls gpiod_put() in nvmem_device_release() or in the register error
path. This leads to a GPIO descriptor resource leak.
Add gpiod_put() in nvmem_device_release() and in the register error
path to fix the resource leak.
Fixes: 2a127da461a9 ("nvmem: add support for the write-protect pin")
