[PATCH] mfd: cs42l43: cancel boot work during remove
From: Hongyan Xu
Date: Tue Jul 28 2026 - 03:03:20 EST
Probe queues boot_work on system_long_wq, but both transport remove
callbacks release the devm-allocated CS42L43 data without waiting for it.
Cancel the work before powering the device down. Balance the runtime-PM
reference when pending work is cancelled, and have the worker call the
power-down helper directly on error to avoid cancelling itself.
This issue was found by a static analysis tool.
