Subject: [PATCH 3/4] HID: multitouch: use __free(kfree) to clean up temporary buffers
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 11:38:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260415-wip-fix-core-v1-3-ed3c4c823175@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260415-wip-fix-core-v1-0-ed3c4c823175@kernel.org>

This simplifies error handling and protects against memory leaks.
