Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
Pre-existing issues:
- [High] The MFD core driver dynamically mutates static `mfd_cell` structures to pass custom parent data via `platform_data`, violating MFD guidelines and introducing a race condition.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but the core driver for these
devices dynamically mutates static mfd_cell structures.
Looking at tps6105x_add_device() in drivers/mfd/tps6105x.c, the function
modifies the shared static mfd_cell's platform_data field with a pointer to
the newly allocated parent data:
drivers/mfd/tps6105x.c:tps6105x_add_device() {
...
cell->platform_data = tps6105x;
cell->pdata_size = sizeof(*tps6105x);
...
}
Because the cell is declared as static but not const:
drivers/mfd/tps6105x.c:
static struct mfd_cell tps6105x_gpio_cell = {
.name = "tps6105x-gpio",
};
Could this create a data race if multiple I2C adapter initialization threads
concurrently call tps6105x_probe()?
Additionally, the child driver incorrectly reads the duplicated platform_data
instead of using dev_get_drvdata() on the parent device as mandated by MFD
rules:
drivers/leds/leds-tps6105x.c:tps6105x_led_probe() {
...
struct tps6105x *tps6105x = dev_get_platdata(&pdev->dev);
...
}
Because platform_device_add_data() makes a kmemdup copy of the struct passed
via platform_data, if device B unbinds, device A's child may hold a copy of
pointers that were freed, leading to a Use-After-Free.
Could the child driver be updated to retrieve parent data via
dev_get_drvdata(pdev->dev.parent), allowing the mfd_cell arrays to be static
const?
