Two related fixes for GPIO chip-select descriptor leaks in the raw
NAND core helper and its in-tree user, the Arasan controller driver:
- patch 1 rolls back the already-acquired GPIO descriptors when
rawnand_dt_parse_gpio_cs() fails midway through the cs-gpios array;
- patch 2 releases the parsed CS array on the arasan probe error
paths (invalid DT layout and anfc_chips_init() failure), factoring
the remove-time gpiod_put() loop into a shared helper.
Both issues date back to the gpio-cs support merged in 2021 and are
still present in current master. Not runtime-tested (no hardware).

rawnand_dt_parse_gpio_cs() acquires one GPIO descriptor per loop
iteration with gpiod_get_index_optional(). If a later iteration
fails, the descriptors acquired so far are never released, leaking
the GPIO references.
Roll back with gpiod_put() on the error path. gpiod_put() accepts
NULL, so the NULL slots left by absent optional GPIOs need no special
casing.

The CS GPIO descriptors acquired by anfc_parse_cs() via
rawnand_dt_parse_gpio_cs() are only released in anfc_remove(). Two
probe error paths leak them:
- anfc_parse_cs() itself returns -EINVAL on an invalid DT GPIO CS
layout without releasing the freshly acquired descriptors;
- anfc_probe() bails out when anfc_chips_init() fails, leaving the
successfully parsed CS array behind.
Factor the gpiod_put() loop of anfc_remove() into anfc_put_cs() and
call it from both error paths as well. gpiod_put() accepts NULL, so
this is also safe when the default all-NULL CS array is in place.

[Severity: Medium]
This problem wasn't introduced by this patch, but can its caller leak the
same nfc->cs_array GPIO descriptors [1] when probe fails after
rawnand_dt_parse_gpio_cs() succeeds?
Because rawnand_dt_parse_gpio_cs() uses unmanaged gpiod_get_index_optional(),
those descriptors are only released in anfc_remove():
drivers/mtd/nand/raw/arasan-nand-controller.c:anfc_parse_cs() {
ret = rawnand_dt_parse_gpio_cs(nfc->dev, &nfc->cs_array, &nfc->ncs);
if (ret)
return ret;
...
if (nfc->cs_array) {
if (nfc->ncs > 2 && !nfc->cs_array[0] && !nfc->cs_array[1]) {
dev_err(nfc->dev,
"Assign a single native CS when using GPIOs\n");
return -EINVAL;
}
}
If the native chip-select check in anfc_parse_cs() or a subsequent call to
anfc_chips_init() in anfc_probe() fails, the GPIO lines remain requested and
cause later probe attempts to fail with -EBUSY. Switching to
devm_gpiod_get_index_optional() (and dropping the manual gpiod_put() loop in
anfc_remove()) would avoid leaking descriptors in both places.
