[PATCH] media: i2c: ak7375: fix regulator leak on remove while runtime-active

From: Cong Nguyen

Date: Mon Sep 28 2026 - 10:14:10 EST


ak7375_remove() calls pm_runtime_set_suspended(), but that's pure
bookkeeping -- it doesn't call ak7375_vcm_suspend() or otherwise
disable the regulator. ak7375_open()/close() hold a resume_and_get()/
put() pair for as long as a /dev/v4l-subdevX fd stays open, and
nothing requires userspace to close it before unbind -- so removing
the driver with an fd still open leaves the regulator on with no code
path left to ever disable it.

Call ak7375_vcm_suspend() in that case, guarded by
pm_runtime_status_suspended() so the common already-suspended case
isn't suspended twice -- same guard sibling imx412.c's remove() uses.

Moved remove() after suspend()/resume()'s definitions since it now
calls them directly.
