[PATCH] i2c: imx: disable autosuspend on remove

From: Guangshuo Li

Date: Mon Sep 14 2026 - 05:22:50 EST


i2c_imx_probe() enables runtime PM autosuspend with
pm_runtime_use_autosuspend(). The probe error path correctly undoes
this setting with pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend(), but the normal
remove path only disables runtime PM.

The runtime PM API requires pm_runtime_use_autosuspend() to be undone
with pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() at driver exit unless runtime PM
was enabled with devm_pm_runtime_enable(). Leaving the autosuspend flag
set therefore leaves the runtime PM state incompletely cleaned up after
the driver is unbound.

Add the missing pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() call to the remove
path.

This issue was found by manual code inspection.
