Subject: [PATCH v2] phy: renesas: rcar-gen3-usb2: Fix an error handling path in
rcar_gen3_phy_usb2_probe()

If an error occurs after the rcar_gen3_phy_usb2_init_bus(),
reset_control_assert() must be called, as already done in the remove function.

This is fine to re-use the existing error handling path, because even if "channel->rstc" is still NULL
at this point, it is safe to call reset_control_assert(NULL).

Changes in v2:
- Re-use 'error' to simplify the patch [claudiu beznea]
- Update the commit description to explain why it is safe.

v1:

error:

This will result in either kernel crash [1] or reset usage count imbalance in case
of error [2] and [3] in rcar_gen3_phy_usb2_init_bus() see [4]. Also reset control API is not
respected for SoCs other than RZ/G3S. For those SoC's reset assert is
called without calling a get(). Maybe add a check (phy_data->init_bus) for
assert api's, that guarantees assert is called after calling a get() as it
valid only for RZ/G3S??

[1]
channel->rstc = devm_reset_control_array_get_shared(dev);
if (IS_ERR(channel->rstc))
return PTR_ERR(channel->rstc);

[2]
ret = pm_runtime_resume_and_get(dev);
if (ret)
return ret;
[3]
ret = reset_control_deassert(channel->rstc);
if (ret)
goto rpm_put;

[4] https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.11-rc6/source/drivers/reset/core.c#L483

So, if I understand correctly, v1 [5] was correct. :)


I don't think that [1] would crash, because of [6]. It would only WARN_ON. But with v1, it is not called.

With v1, reset_control_assert() is not called if rcar_gen3_phy_usb2_init_bus() fails. So [2] and [3] can't occur.

I can send a v3, which is the same of v1, or you can pick v1 as-is (if I'm correct... :)) or you can just ignore it if "reset control API is not respected for SoCs".


If of interest, I spotted it with one of my coccinelle script that compares functions called in .remove function, but not in error handling path of probe.
