The driver uses devm_add_action_or_reset() to register sprd_wdt_disable()
as a managed cleanup action.
When devm_watchdog_register_device() fails, the devm core will invoke
the cleanup action automatically.
The explicit sprd_wdt_disable() call in the error path is therefore
redundant and results in adouble cleanup.
Fixes: 78d9bfad2e89 ("watchdog: sprd_wdt: Convert to use device managed functions and other improvements")

Hi Guenter,
Gentle ping.
Is it good to merge?

I checked. The patch is queued in my watchdog-next, and I just confirmed
that it is in linux-next (next-20260522). What else are you looking for ?

Hi Guenter,
Thanks.
I didn't notice it was already in the linux-next.
