Subject: [PATCH v2] Input: amijoy - fix memory region leak on registration failure
Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2026 01:49:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261108004952.394691-3-blum@kernel.org> (raw)
If input_register_device() fails in amijoy_init(), release the memory
region for the current port before cleaning up the previously registered
ports.
Consolidate the error paths while at it.
Fixes: 127278ce2254 ("Input: joysticks - handle errors when registering input devices")
Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <blum@kernel.org>

Changes in v2:
- Consolidate the error paths (Dmitry)
- Drop cc stable (Dmitry)
- v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20261107160159.367919-2-blum@kernel.org/
