[PATCH v2] PCI: starfive: Fix unchecked pm_runtime_get_sync() in probe
From: Ali Tariq
Date: Sat Jul 18 2026 - 11:39:01 EST
pm_runtime_get_sync() is called in starfive_pcie_probe() without
checking its return value. If runtime resume fails, the driver
proceeds to configure PCIe hardware through regmap_update_bits(),
enable clocks and resets, and power on the PHY, even though the
device may not actually be powered.
pm_runtime_get_sync() also increments the usage counter even when
resume fails, which would leave the counter unbalanced if this
error path were later handled without additional cleanup.
Switch to pm_runtime_resume_and_get(), which balances the usage
counter internally on failure, and bail out of probe before any
hardware is touched if resume does not succeed.
Tested on StarFive VisionFive 2 v1.2A board.
