Re: [PATCH v3] iio: trigger: use put_device() in viio_trigger_alloc() error path

[Salah Triki]

Hi Andy,

You are absolutely right. My previous version (v3) was logically flawed as
it could trigger the release callback before the necessary fields were
initialized, leading to an unsafe irq_free_descs() call.

Since I don't have the physical hardware to perform runtime injection
tests,I relied on manual code path analysis and clearly failed to account
for the side effects of put_device().

I'm sending a v4 which takes the safer approach: moving
device_initialize() after all potential failure points. This way, we can
safely use kfree() and irq_free_descs() in the error path without
involving the device lifecycle prematurely.

Thank you for the catch.
