[PATCH] power: pwrseq: fix missing state_lock in pwrseq_power_on() error path

From: Ziyi Guo

Date: Fri Jan 30 2026 - 13:27:11 EST


pwrseq_power_on() calls pwrseq_unit_disable() when the
post_enable callback fails. However, this call is outside the
scoped_guard(mutex, &pwrseq->state_lock) block that ends.

pwrseq_unit_disable() has lockdep_assert_held(&pwrseq->state_lock),
which will fail when called from this error path.

Add the scoped_guard block to cover the post_enable callback and its
error handling to ensure the lock is held when pwrseq_unit_disable() is
called.
