[PATCH] drm/bridge: samsung-dsim: fix TE GPIO ownership

From: Guangshuo Li

Date: Thu Jun 04 2026 - 07:53:37 EST


samsung_dsim_register_te_irq() acquires the TE GPIO with
devm_gpiod_get_optional(), but the descriptor is released manually in the
request_threaded_irq() error path and in samsung_dsim_unregister_te_irq().
The devres entry remains registered and will release the same descriptor
again when the device is detached.

Use the non-managed gpiod_get_optional() helper instead, so the GPIO
descriptor lifetime matches the existing manual cleanup paths. Also clear
dsi->te_gpio after each gpiod_put() to avoid leaving a stale descriptor
pointer around if the host is attached again.

Fixes: e7447128ca4a ("drm: bridge: Generalize Exynos-DSI driver into a Samsung DSIM bridge")
