Subject: [PATCH] net: mvmdio: fix clk reference leak in orion_mdio_probe()
Date: Fri,  9 Oct 2026 00:53:28 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008165328.2702289-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)

orion_mdio_probe() calls of_clk_get() with index ARRAY_SIZE(dev->clk)
purely to test whether the device tree declares more clocks than the
driver supports.  of_clk_get() takes a reference on the returned clk,
but the return value is only checked with IS_ERR() and never released,
so both the clk reference and the clk allocated by alloc_clk() are leaked
whenever the DT node has more than four clocks.

Store the returned clk in a local variable and release it with clk_put()
after emitting the warning.

Fixes: ea664b1bdc19 ("net: mvmdio: print warning when orion-mdio has too many clocks")
