[PATCH 26/28] mfd: mt6397: Unregister PM notifier on probe failure and unbind
From: Lee Jones
Date: Wed Oct 21 2026 - 08:25:22 EST
mt6397_irq_init() registers a power management notifier block embedded
in the devres-managed struct mt6397_chip via register_pm_notifier(),
but never unregisters it if mt6397_probe() later fails or when the
driver is unbound. Once devres frees struct mt6397_chip, the dangling
notifier block corrupts the global PM notifier chain and causes a
use-after-free on subsequent suspend or resume transitions.
Check the return value of register_pm_notifier() and register a devres
action to unregister the PM notifier on probe failure or device unbind.
Fixes: 4e2e7cfec13a ("mfd: mt6397: Modify suspend/resume behavior")
