See [1]. See also commit f92a4b50f0bd that adds some detail about the error handling in vmbus_device_register(). It's all rather messy. I have not personally worked through the details, so I'm not sure of what the right cleanup is. But I don't think it is sufficient to just do the kfree() as your patch proposes. Or if I'm wrong, and that *is* sufficient, please provides details on the reasoning why, and let's make sure to record that for future reference! :-) Michael [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hyperv/20230607014310.19850-1-jiasheng@xxxxxxxxxxx/
