[PATCH] crypto: omap-des: fix crypto engine cleanup

From: Guangshuo Li

Date: Sat Sep 12 2026 - 10:41:56 EST


omap_des_probe() allocates and starts a crypto engine, but the remove
path does not call the matching crypto_engine_exit(). The probe failure
path already performs this cleanup.

crypto_engine_alloc_init() creates a kthread worker for processing
requests. Without crypto_engine_exit() during driver removal, the
worker is left running after the device is removed.

Call crypto_engine_exit() after unregistering the algorithms and before
tearing down the remaining request handling resources. This stops the
engine and destroys its worker.

This issue was found by manual code inspection.
