Hi all,

The DT node full name is currently being used in regmap_config
which in turn is used to create the regmap debugfs directories.
This name however is not guaranteed to be unique and the regmap
debugfs registration can fail in the cases where the syscon nodes
have the same unit-address but are present in different DT node
hierarchies. Replace this logic using the syscon reg resource
address instead (inspired from logic used while creating platform
devices) to ensure a unique name is given for each syscon.

This patch triggers some illegal memory accesses when debugfs is
enabled, as regmap does rely on config->name to be persistent
when the debugfs registration is deferred via regmap_debugfs_early_list
(__regmap_init() -> regmap_attach_dev() -> regmap_debugfs_init()...),
leading to a KASAN splat on demand.
I came up with the following patch that solves the issue for me.
Thanks,
M.

Subject: [PATCH] mfd: syscon: Don't free allocated name for
regmap_config
The name allocated for the regmap_config structure is freed
pretty early, right after the registration of the MMIO region.
Unfortunately, that doesn't follow the life cycle that debugfs
expects, as it can access the name field long after the free
has occured.
Move the free on the error path, and keep it forever otherwise.
Fixes: e15d7f2b81d2 ("mfd: syscon: Use a unique name with
regmap_config")
