[PATCH 1/4] Input: da7280 - fix input device parent assignment

From: Dmitry Torokhov

Date: Thu Oct 08 2026 - 05:52:44 EST


Assigning the I2C bus controller (client->dev.parent) instead of the
I2C client (&client->dev) as the parent device after
devm_input_allocate_device() causes input_register_device() to attach
the devm unregistration action to the parent controller device rather
than the client device. This leaves the input device registered on
driver unbind, leading to use-after-free.

devm_input_allocate_device() already sets input_dev->dev.parent to
&client->dev. Drop the redundant and erroneous assignment.
