Subject: [PATCH v2 6/6] platform/chrome: Manage struct cros_ec_device lifecycle by its refcount
Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2025 08:00:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250708080034.3425427-7-tzungbi@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250708080034.3425427-1-tzungbi@kernel.org>
Stop delegating the memory to dev-managed. Use its own refcount for
managing the lifecycle.
