[PATCH v4] iio: gyro: mpu3050: fix runtime PM leak when enabling trigger fails

From: Biren Pandya

Date: Fri Jul 17 2026 - 14:14:04 EST


mpu3050_drdy_trigger_set_state() calls pm_runtime_get_sync() when the
trigger is enabled, but several error paths in the enable branch return
directly without dropping the usage counter again. pm_runtime_get_sync()
increments the usage counter, so every failed enable leaks a runtime PM
reference and the device can no longer autosuspend. The driver state flag
hw_irq_trigger is also left set after a failed enable.

Jump to a common error label that drops the reference and clears
hw_irq_trigger, mirroring the disable path. The success path deliberately
keeps the reference, as the device must stay resumed while the trigger is
active.

Changes in v4:
- Reverted stray change converting `mpu3050_read_mem()` kernel-doc to a regular comment.
- Dropped AI assistance tag from the commit message.
Changes in v3:
- Changed to a unified error label instead of individual drops.
Changes in v2:
- Fixed a missed PM release in the first error branch.
