[PATCH v1] serial: qcom-geni: Fix port_ida handling for console and probe errors

From: Aniket Randive

Date: Fri Aug 28 2026 - 07:14:28 EST


The console port uses a fixed line number and is not allocated from
port_ida. However, qcom_geni_serial_remove() unconditionally frees the
line number for all ports, including the console port.

Skip ida_free() for console ports so that only IDs allocated from
port_ida are returned.

Also release allocated IDs from the common probe error path. Currently,
IDs are freed only on the wake-IRQ failure path, causing leaks when
probe fails after a successful allocation. Move the ida_free() call to
the common error path and guard it for console ports.
