[PATCH] EDAC/versalnet: fix remoteproc reference leak
From: Guangshuo Li
Date: Sun Sep 13 2026 - 01:35:57 EST
mc_probe() acquires a reference to the remote processor with
rproc_get_by_phandle(), but mc_remove() does not release the reference.
rproc_shutdown() only balances the power reference acquired by
rproc_boot(); it does not drop the device reference acquired by
rproc_get_by_phandle(). As a result, successful driver removal leaves
the remoteproc reference unbalanced.
Call rproc_put() during removal to release the reference acquired in
mc_probe().
This issue was found by manual code inspection.
