[PATCH] ASoC: codec: rt298: Use devm_request_threaded_irq to manage IRQ lifetime and fix smatch warning

From: hariconscious
Date: Wed Dec 17 2025 - 06:08:34 EST


From: HariKrishna Sagala <hariconscious@xxxxxxxxx>

Replace manual "request_threaded_irq()" with the device managed
"devm_request_threaded_irq" to manage the IRQ lifetime and also
it removes the smatch reported warning.
Remove the manual "free_irq()" in the "remove" function as free_irq
is tied to device teardown.

This patch replaces the manual management of IRQ with the device
managed IRQ API. Also, it removes the smatch reported warning.

sound/soc/codecs/rt298.c:1298 rt298_i2c_probe() warn: 'rt298->i2c->irq'
from request_threaded_irq() not released on lines: 1298.

Removed the "remove" function as IRQ is managed automatically.

Thank you.
