When a DOE feature is reported twice, sysfs_add_file_to_group() fails
with -EEXIST for the second copy and pci_doe_sysfs_feature_populate()
frees that attribute's name, but leaves the pointer in place.
pci_doe_sysfs_feature_remove() frees every name again when the device
is removed, or when a later feature fails to register, so the name is
freed twice:
BUG: KASAN: double-free in pci_doe_sysfs_feature_remove+0x117/0x1b0
Call Trace:
kfree+0x11a/0x420
pci_doe_sysfs_feature_remove+0x117/0x1b0
pci_doe_sysfs_teardown+0x90/0xf0
pci_remove_bus_device+0x128/0x2e0
pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device_locked+0x1d/0x30
remove_store+0xd2/0xf0
Clear the pointer after freeing the name.

Changes in v2:
- Keep freeing the duplicate's name in pci_doe_sysfs_feature_populate()
and clear the pointer, instead of leaving it to
pci_doe_sysfs_feature_remove() (Alistair Francis)
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260928035035.252394-1-donggeunyoo.kernel@gmail.com/
Tested under QEMU (q35, cxl-type3, KASAN) on 72d3fcf802c4. The device
reports its CDAT feature once, so a test-only change either registers
its DOE capability as a second mailbox or inserts the feature N extra
times into one:
case before after
no duplicate, remove no report no report
no duplicate, a name fails at probe no report no report
two mailboxes, remove double free no report
two mailboxes, 3 remove/rescan cycles 3 double frees no report
3 duplicates in one mailbox, remove 3 double frees no report
2 duplicates, a later name fails, 2 double frees no report
probed twice
The doe_features listing is the same before and after in every case.
