[PATCH 1/3] ALSA: usb-audio: qcom: Free QMI handle

From: raoxu

Date: Tue Jun 23 2026 - 03:03:47 EST


From: Xu Rao <raoxu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

qc_usb_audio_probe() allocates svc->uaudio_svc_hdl separately from the
uaudio_qmi_svc object.

qmi_handle_release() releases the resources owned by an initialized QMI
handle, but does not free the memory containing the struct qmi_handle
itself. The probe error path and the remove path currently release the
handle and then free svc, losing the last pointer to the separately
allocated handle.

This leaks one struct qmi_handle on each affected probe unwind and on
each successful probe/remove cycle.

Free the handle after qmi_handle_release() in both paths.
