The "lvds->backlight" pointer could be NULL in situations where of_parse_phandle() returns NULL. This code is cleaner if we use the managed devm_of_find_backlight() so the clean up is automatic. Fixes: 7c9dff5bd643 ("drm: panels: Add LVDS panel driver") Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> --- v3: Use devm_of_find_backlight(). This version is quite a bit more ambitious, and I haven't tested it so please review carefully. v2: Use backlight_put() drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-lvds.c | 21 ++++----------------- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-lvds.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-lvds.c index ad47cc95459e..bf5fcc3e5379 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-lvds.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-lvds.c @@ -197,7 +197,6 @@ static int panel_lvds_parse_dt(struct panel_lvds *lvds) static int panel_lvds_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) { struct panel_lvds *lvds; - struct device_node *np; int ret; lvds = devm_kzalloc(&pdev->dev, sizeof(*lvds), GFP_KERNEL); @@ -243,14 +242,9 @@ static int panel_lvds_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) return ret; } - np = of_parse_phandle(lvds->dev->of_node, "backlight", 0); - if (np) { - lvds->backlight = of_find_backlight_by_node(np); - of_node_put(np); - - if (!lvds->backlight) - return -EPROBE_DEFER; - } + lvds->backlight = devm_of_find_backlight(lvds->dev); + if (IS_ERR(lvds->backlight)) + return PTR_ERR(lvds->backlight); /* * TODO: Handle all power supplies specified in the DT node in a generic @@ -266,14 +260,10 @@ static int panel_lvds_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) ret = drm_panel_add(&lvds->panel); if (ret < 0) - goto error; + return ret; dev_set_drvdata(lvds->dev, lvds); return 0; - -error: - put_device(&lvds->backlight->dev); - return ret; } static int panel_lvds_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) @@ -284,9 +274,6 @@ static int panel_lvds_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) panel_lvds_disable(&lvds->panel); - if (lvds->backlight) - put_device(&lvds->backlight->dev); - return 0; } -- 2.20.1
