Unlike scan_async_group(), soc_of_bind() doesn't allocate its
soc_camera_async_client structure using devm_kzalloc(), but has it
embedded inside the soc_of_info structure. Hence on failure, it must
not free it using devm_kfree(), as this will cause a warning, and may
cause slab corruption:

Perhaps Ben meant 'info' ISO 'sasc'? This way it would make more sense.

dev_err(ici->v4l2_dev.dev, "group probe failed: %d\n", ret);

return ret;
