Subject: [PATCH v1] ipmi: Remove all sysfs files on registration failure
Date: Sun,  2 Aug 2026 21:55:50 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260803015550.618808-1-dbgh9129@gmail.com> (raw)

ipmi_add_smi() creates the nr_users and nr_msgs files before trying to
create the maintenance_mode file. If that last creation fails, the error
path removes only nr_users before dropping the final reference to the
interface.

Remove nr_msgs as well so no sysfs attribute embedded in the freed
interface remains registered.

Fixes: 627118470fcc ("ipmi: Add a maintenance mode sysfs file")
