[PATCH] usb: musb: ux500: Fix PHY resource leak in error path

From: Haotian Zhang
Date: Sun Nov 02 2025 - 21:02:32 EST


The ux500_musb_init() function calls usb_get_phy() to obtain a PHY
resource, but fails to release it with usb_put_phy() when
usb_register_notifier() fails. This leads to a resource leak as the
PHY reference count is not properly decremented.

Add usb_put_phy() call in the error path before returning to ensure
the PHY resource is properly released when notifier registration fails.
