[PATCH] USB: gadget: f_hid: Release get report req upon unsetup
From: Edward Adam Davis
Date: Mon Aug 10 2026 - 06:25:52 EST
The GET_REPORT request instance (hidg->get_req) is freed only within
hidg_disable() after successful binding, and only if Condition [1] is met.
Since userspace does not execute the setup, get_report_workqueue_handler()
is never invoked; consequently, Condition [1] is never met, leading to the
memory leak reported in [2].
The solution is to add memory reclamation for get_req in hidg_unbind(),
using `get_req->length` to determine whether Condition [1] applies.
Additionally, a failure in usb_gstrings_attach() also triggers the issue
reported in [2], so this is fixed at the same time.

The report is not in the list or should not be sent immediately
