If probe errors out after request_irq(), its error path does not explicitly cancel the delayed work, which may have been scheduled by the interrupt handler. This means the delayed work may still be running when the core frees the private structure (struct xadc). This is a potential use-after-free. Fix by inserting cancel_delayed_work_sync() in the probe error path.
