Subject: [PATCH] i2c: st: Fix clock reference leak in st_i2c_probe()
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:02:35 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916160235.2080462-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)
The clock obtained with of_clk_get_by_name() is never released: the
probe error paths after it, irq request failure, deglitch setup
failure and adapter registration failure, return without clk_put(),
and st_i2c_remove() does not drop the reference either.
Add a cleanup label that drops the clock reference on the probe error
paths and release the reference in the remove path.
Fixes: 85b4fab26960 ("i2c: i2c-st: Add ST I2C controller")
