[PATCH] ASoC: intel: avs: Fix potential memory leak in avs_pci_probe()
From: Abdun Nihaal
Date: Thu Nov 13 2025 - 05:41:38 EST
In snd_hdac_ext_bus_get_ml_capabilities(), memory is allocated for
multiple hdac_ext_link structures, and appended to bus->hlink_list.
But the subsequent error paths in avs_pci_probe() don't free them.
Fix this by calling snd_hdac_ext_link_free_all() on the error path.
Also handle the return code of snd_hdac_ext_bus_get_ml_capabilities()
correctly, since it can return -ENOMEM.
Fixes: 1affc44ea5dd ("ASoC: Intel: avs: PCI driver implementation")
