Subject: [PATCH v1] drm/mipi-dsi: Use put_device() on device_add() failure
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 15:35:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260615193555.757498-1-dbgh9129@gmail.com> (raw)
mipi_dsi_device_alloc() initializes the embedded struct device before
mipi_dsi_device_register_full() calls mipi_dsi_device_add(). If
device_add() fails, the code frees the DSI object directly with kfree(),
bypassing the device release callback.
Drop the initialized device reference with put_device() instead, so
mipi_dsi_dev_release() runs and releases resources owned by the device,
including the OF node reference.
Fixes: 068a00233969 ("drm: Add MIPI DSI bus support")
