Subject: [PATCH net] net: wan: fsl_ucc_hdlc: release HDLC device on remove
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 02:15:45 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260728171545.49247-1-mhun512@gmail.com> (raw)
ucc_hdlc_probe() registers an HDLC netdev whose private pointer refers to
the separately allocated ucc_hdlc_private object. The remove path frees
that private object without unregistering or freeing the netdev, leaving
a registered device with a dangling private pointer.
Unregister the HDLC device before releasing hardware resources. This
closes an active interface through ndo_stop, which disables NAPI, stops
the UCC, and frees its IRQ. Then free the netdev before releasing its
private object.
Fixes: c19b6d246a35 ("drivers/net: support hdlc function for QE-UCC")
