Subject: [PATCH v2] i2c: fix reference leak in MP2 PCI device
Date: Sun, 28 Sep 2025 15:19:33 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250928071933.1627-1-make24@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)

In i2c_amd_probe(), amd_mp2_find_device() utilizes
driver_find_next_device() which internally calls driver_find_device()
to locate the matching device. driver_find_device() increments the
reference count of the found device by calling get_device(), but
amd_mp2_find_device() fails to call put_device() to decrement the
reference count before returning. This results in a reference count
leak of the PCI device each time i2c_amd_probe() is executed, which
may prevent the device from being properly released and cause a memory
leak.

Found by code review.

Fixes: 529766e0a011 ("i2c: Add drivers for the AMD PCIe MP2 I2C controller")
