Subject: [PATCH v2] gpio: cdev: Fix resource leaks on errors in gpiolib_cdev_register()
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2026 09:26:50 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260120092650.2305319-1-tzungbi@kernel.org> (raw)

On error handling paths, gpiolib_cdev_register() doesn't free the
allocated resources which results leaks.  Fix it.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: 7b9b77a8bba9 ("gpiolib: add a per-gpio_device line state notification workqueue")
Fixes: d83cee3d2bb1 ("gpio: protect the pointer to gpio_chip in gpio_device with SRCU")
Signed-off-by: Tzung-Bi Shih <tzungbi@kernel.org>

v2:
- Fix the jumping over guard() issue reported in
  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-gpio/202601200022.ZFwz8K6u-lkp@intel.com/T/#u.
- Title prefix: "gpiolib" -> "gpio".

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260116081036.352286-3-tzungbi@kernel.org/
