Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda: cs35l41: Fix ACPI device reference leak on probe
failure
cs35l41_hda_probe() takes an acpi_device through
cs35l41_hda_read_acpi() and stores it in cs35l41->dacpi. Only the
failures that happen later reach the err: label, which is where that
reference and cs35l41->acpi_subsystem_id are released, so the early
return taken when cs35l41_hda_read_acpi() fails leaves both behind.
Keep the ownership in the caller instead of dropping the reference
inside cs35l41_hda_read_acpi(). That removes the need to work out
whether a given failure path has already released it, and with it the
double put that cs35l41_hda_parse_acpi() would otherwise cause when it
fails after having released the device itself.
cs35l41_hda_parse_acpi() and the !physdev path no longer put the
reference, and the early failure enters the existing err: cleanup tail
through a new err_acpi label.
The label sits between the reset of the codec and the gpio cleanup, so
an early failure also releases the reset and chip-select descriptors
that cs35l41_hda_parse_acpi() may already have taken, while still
skipping cs35l41_safe_reset() on a codec that was never brought up.
cs35l41->dacpi comes from devm_kzalloc() and is only assigned once the
ACPI device has been found, so the put is a no-op when the lookup
itself failed.
Found by code review.
