[PATCH 2/2] phy: qcom: qmp-pcie: Check clock-output-names count in the multi-PHY driver

From: David Carlier

Date: Tue Aug 25 2026 - 18:58:02 EST


of_property_count_strings() returns a negative errno when the property
is missing or malformed. The value was passed straight to
devm_kcalloc(), whose overflow check rejected it, turning a device tree
problem into a bogus -ENOMEM with no diagnostic.

Fixes: 1781be3c8a5d ("phy: qcom: qmp-pcie: Add QMP PCIe Multi-PHY driver")
