[PATCH v1] ACPI: sysfs: Fix hotplug kobject cleanup on failure
From: Yuho Choi
Date: Thu Jul 02 2026 - 19:26:39 EST
acpi_sysfs_init() creates the ACPI hotplug kobject and the force_remove
sysfs file before creating the pm_profile file. If force_remove creation
fails, the hotplug kobject is left behind. If pm_profile creation fails,
both force_remove and the hotplug kobject are left behind.
Add the missing unwind paths so the partial hotplug sysfs state is
removed before returning an error.
Fixes: 683058e315f0 ("ACPI / hotplug: Use device offline/online for graceful hot-removal")
