[PATCH] clk: versaclock7: Fix APLL clock leak on probe failure
From: Myeonghun Pak
Date: Tue Jun 23 2026 - 05:31:40 EST
vc7_probe() registers the APLL with clk_register_fixed_rate(), which is
not devm-managed and must be explicitly unregistered on probe failure.
Most later errors already unwind through err_clk, but a failure from
vc7_get_bank_clk() in the output registration loop returned directly.
That skipped clk_unregister_fixed_rate() and leaked the APLL clock.
Route that error through the existing err_clk label so the fixed-rate
clock is released consistently with the other probe failure paths.
This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research while
reviewing kernel code.
