Subject: [PATCH] fbdev: kyro: Release WC setup on registration failure
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 20:52:43 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260915005243.51683-1-mhun512@gmail.com> (raw)
If register_framebuffer() fails, kyrofb_probe() frees the framebuffer
without releasing its write-combining range. Release the range before
freeing the framebuffer. Earlier failures still skip this cleanup.
The missing cleanup already exists in the initial Git import, before
the conversion from mtrr_add() to arch_phys_wc_add().
This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research
while reviewing kernel code.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
