Subject: [PATCH] power: supply: bq27xxx: Ensure poll work is cancelled on
remove
The di->work poll work is queued from the poll callback itself and from
bq27xxx_external_power_changed(). The cancel_delayed_work_sync() in
bq27xxx_battery_teardown() runs while the power_supply is still
registered, so external_power_changed() can re-arm the work after the
cancel, and it runs after the driver data has been freed.
Register a devm_delayed_work_autocancel() before
devm_power_supply_register(), so on unwind the power_supply is
unregistered first, after which no new external_power_changed()
callback can be dispatched, and the poll work is cancelled only then.
Drop the now-redundant cancel from bq27xxx_battery_teardown().
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.
