Subject: [RFC PATCH 6.6.y 1/4] misc: ti-st: publish the transport only after probe succeeds
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 13:28:39 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260724052842.1052-2-getshell@seu.edu.cn> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260724052842.1052-1-getshell@seu.edu.cn>

kim_probe() stores the platform device in st_kim_devices[] before the
transport core and the remaining resources are initialized.  If a later
probe step fails, st_kim_ref() can follow that published device to freed
driver data.

Publish the device only after probe has completed, and clear drvdata when
rolling probe back.

Fixes: 53618cc1e51e ("Staging: sources for ST core")
