[PATCH v2 01/10] iio: light: opt3001: move device registration to end of probe()
From: Joshua Crofts via B4 Relay
Date: Tue May 12 2026 - 06:58:03 EST
From: Joshua Crofts <joshua.crofts1@xxxxxxxxx>
Move devm_iio_device_register() to end of the opt3001_probe() function
to prevent a race condition where userspace could interact with the
device before the hardware IRQ was set up.
Fixes: ac663db3678a ("iio: light: opt3001: enable operation w/o IRQ")
Reported-by: Jonathan Cameron <jic23@xxxxxxxxxx>
Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@xxxxxxxxxx>
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260511-opt3001-cleanup-v1-0-f7879dc3455c%40gmail.com?part=7
