[PATCH v2 0/3] media: mediatek: unregister VPU watchdog handlers

[Guangshuo Li]

The Mediatek vcodec and MDP drivers register watchdog reset handlers
with the VPU driver and pass driver-owned objects as private data.

These handlers can remain registered after an initialization failure or
device removal. A later VPU watchdog reset can therefore invoke a
handler with stale private data and potentially dereference freed
memory.

This series adds a common helper for unregistering VPU watchdog
handlers, then uses it in the vcodec and MDP cleanup paths before their
VPU device references are released.

The series is organized as follows:

1. Add vpu_wdt_unreg_handler() to the VPU driver.
2. Unregister the vcodec watchdog handler during initialization
   failure and firmware release.
3. Unregister the MDP watchdog handler during probe failure and
   device removal.

v2:

  - Split the changes into three patches as requested by Nicolas.
  - Fix the extra blank line reported by checkpatch.
  - Carry Nicolas' Reviewed-by tag on the MDP patch.
