Subject: [PATCH] media: staging/ipu7: fix async notifier leak on init error
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 18:22:39 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260727112239.812159-1-congnt264@gmail.com> (raw)

isys_notifier_init() initialises a v4l2 async notifier and then, for
each CSI-2 port, adds a remote sensor subdev to the notifier's
waiting_list via v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode_remote(), which allocates a
sensor_async_sd descriptor and takes a fwnode reference.

If parsing or adding a later port fails, the code jumps to the
"err_parse" label, which only drops the current endpoint fwnode
reference and returns, without calling v4l2_async_nf_cleanup(). Any
descriptors already added to the notifier for earlier ports are
therefore leaked, and the caller's error path does not clean up the
notifier either.

Call v4l2_async_nf_cleanup() on the error path, matching the cleanup
already performed when v4l2_async_nf_register() fails. This is safe as
the notifier is always initialised before the loop is entered.
