Subject: [PATCH 15/18] HID: logitech-hidpp: use __free(kfree) for temporary allocations
Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2026 22:10:59 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109061103.2887636-16-dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109061103.2887636-1-dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>
Managing short-lived heap allocations manually with explicit kfree()
calls adds boilerplate cleanup paths and forces callers to hold
temporary return variables across calls.
Convert temporary message and device-name allocations in command helpers
and device initialization paths to use __free(kfree) with no_free_ptr()
ownership transfer where the buffer is returned to callers.
