[PATCH] drm/i915/gvt: Release GGTT MM if scratch page setup fails

From: Wentao Liang

Date: Tue Nov 03 2026 - 01:54:17 EST


intel_vgpu_init_gtt() creates the GGTT MM before allocating the scratch
page table tree. If scratch page allocation or DMA mapping fails,
create_scratch_page_tree() releases its own pages, but the GGTT MM and
its virtual GGTT and host GGTT buffers remain allocated. The caller
skips intel_vgpu_clean_gtt() when intel_vgpu_init_gtt() fails.

Drop the GGTT MM reference and clear its pointer before returning the
scratch page initialization error.
