Subject: [PATCH 1/2] netxen: unregister notifiers if PCI registration fails
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 11:20:45 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260728032046.121631-2-pengcan@kylinos.cn> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260728032046.121631-1-pengcan@kylinos.cn>

netxen_init_module() registers the netdevice and inetaddr notifiers before
registering the PCI driver.  If pci_register_driver() fails, the function
returns the error directly and leaves both notifiers registered.

That leaves notifier callbacks installed for a module that failed to load.
Mirror the module exit path on this failure and unregister the notifiers
before returning the error.

Fixes: 6598b169b856 ("netxen: enable ip addr hashing")
