[PATCH v2] media: atomisp: ov2722: Clean up resources on probe failure

From: Punnay Sharma

Date: Wed Sep 16 2026 - 03:42:06 EST


ov2722_probe() mishandles cleanup on three failure paths:

- media_entity_pads_init(): calls ov2722_remove() but falls through
to registration with a freed subdevice.
- atomisp_register_i2c_module(): returns without releasing the device,
controls, CSI allocation or platform resources.
- __ov2722_init_ctrl_handler(): leaves the CSI allocation behind.

Route control-handler, pad initialization and module registration
failures to out_remove to call ov2722_remove(client) and return ret.
Keep the separate configuration failure path because ov2722_s_config()
already unwinds CSI setup.

v2:
- Handle cleanup and error return if atomisp_register_i2c_module()
fails (Dan Carpenter).
- Route __ov2722_init_ctrl_handler() failure to out_remove to clean
up CSI resources.
- Add missing Fixes tag (Dan Carpenter).
