Subject: [PATCH] drivers/char/virtio_console : refactor resource cleanup to use scope-based helpers
Date: Mon,  4 Aug 2025 17:00:20 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250804113020.620352-1-abinashsinghlalotra@gmail.com> (raw)

This refactors the 'alloc_buf' function to replace traditional goto-based
error handling with scope-based cleanup helpers.

No functional changes intended.
