[PATCH 6.12 039/136] usb: gadget: f_ecm: Refactor bind path to use __free()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kuen-Han Tsai <khtsai@google.com>

[ Upstream commit 42988380ac67c76bb9dff8f77d7ef3eefd50b7b5 ]

After an bind/unbind cycle, the ecm->notify_req is left stale. If a
subsequent bind fails, the unified error label attempts to free this
stale request, leading to a NULL pointer dereference when accessing
ep->ops->free_request.

Refactor the error handling in the bind path to use the __free()
automatic cleanup mechanism.

Fixes: da741b8c56d6 ("usb ethernet gadget: split CDC Ethernet function")
