[PATCH v2] uio: fix IRQ vector leak on probe failure and remove

[PATCH v2] uio: fix IRQ vector leak on probe failure and remove

[Guangshuo Li]

probe() allocates MSI/MSI-X vectors with pci_alloc_irq_vectors(), but
neither the error path nor remove() releases them with
pci_free_irq_vectors().

Unlike drivers using pcim_enable_device(), this driver uses
pci_enable_device(), so the IRQ vectors are not managed automatically
and must be freed explicitly.

Add pci_free_irq_vectors() to the probe error path after successful
vector allocation and to remove(). The issue was identified by a
static analysis tool I developed.

Fixes: 3397c3cd859a ("uio: Add SVA support for PCI devices via uio_pci_generic_sva.c")

v2:
  - Change have_irq_vectors from int to bool.
  - Set have_irq_vectors immediately after successful IRQ vector allocation.

Does not apply to linux-next :(
