Subject: [PATCH] regulator: fixed: reject incompatible platform devices
Date: Sat, 22 Aug 2026 12:25:19 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260822065519.112441-1-chandradhar.2003@gmail.com> (raw)
The fixed regulator driver expects non-DT platform devices to provide
their configuration through platform_data as a struct fixed_voltage_config.
An explicitly bound driver can bypass the normal platform device/driver
matching and attach the fixed regulator driver to an unrelated platform
device. This causes the driver's platform_data to be interpreted as a
struct fixed_voltage_config even though it contains data for a different
device.
Reject non-DT platform devices whose name does not match the fixed
regulator driver before accessing their platform data.
Fixes: 4b74ff651249 ("regulator: add support for fixed regulators.")
