[PATCH v1 1/1] i2c: acpi: Free resource list at appropriate time

From: Andy Shevchenko

Date: Wed Jun 17 2026 - 05:21:23 EST


We do unneeded "double free" (emptying an empty list) in one case.
At the same time we shadow a real error code. Address them by
refactoring the code in question.

Both are not critical issues at all, they just make code robust
against any possible future changes in the flow.
