Subject: soc: microchip: mpfs: Fix memory leak in mpfs_sys_controller_probe()
X-Git-Tag: v7.0-rc5~36^2~8^2~3
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5a741f8cc6fe62542f955cd8d24933a1b6589cbd;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

soc: microchip: mpfs: Fix memory leak in mpfs_sys_controller_probe()

In mpfs_sys_controller_probe(), if of_get_mtd_device_by_node() fails,
the function returns immediately without freeing the allocated memory
for sys_controller, leading to a memory leak.

Fix this by jumping to the out_free label to ensure the memory is
properly freed.

Also, consolidate the error handling for the mbox_request_channel()
failure case to use the same label.
