[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.4 01/40] serial: stm32: Ignore return value of uart_remove_one_port() in .remove()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 6bd6cd29c92401a101993290051fa55078238a52 ]

Returning early from stm32_usart_serial_remove() results in a resource
leak as several cleanup functions are not called. The driver core ignores
the return value and there is no possibility to clean up later.

uart_remove_one_port() only returns non-zero if there is some
inconsistency (i.e. stm32_usart_driver.state[port->line].uart_port == NULL).
This should never happen, and even if it does it's a bad idea to exit
early in the remove callback without cleaning up.

This prepares changing the prototype of struct platform_driver::remove to
return void. See commit 5c5a7680e67b ("platform: Provide a remove callback
that returns no value") for further details about this quest.
