[PATCH v1] drm/panel: lg-sw43408: remove panel on DSI attach failure
From: Myeonghun Pak
Date: Mon Apr 20 2026 - 03:40:31 EST
The probe path registers the panel by calling drm_panel_add() in
sw43408_add(), then returns the result of mipi_dsi_attach() directly
from sw43408_probe().
If mipi_dsi_attach() fails, the probe path exits without calling
drm_panel_remove(), leaving the panel registered in the global DRM
panel list. The .remove() callback does not cover this case because
it is only invoked after a successful probe.
Fix this by unwinding the panel registration with drm_panel_remove()
when mipi_dsi_attach() fails.
