Subject: [PATCH] drivers/base/memory: make memory block get/put explicit
Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 19:18:00 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260511111800.2181785-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)
Rename the memory block lookup helper to make the acquired reference
explicit, add memory_block_put() to wrap put_device(), and collapse the
redundant section-number wrapper into a single block-id based lookup
interface.
This makes it clearer to callers that a successful lookup holds a
reference that must be dropped, reducing the chance of forgetting the
matching put and leaking the memory block device reference.
