phy: apple: atc: Fix typec switch/mux leak on unbind
atcphy_probe_switch() and atcphy_probe_mux() discard the pointers
returned by typec_switch_register() and typec_mux_register(). The
platform driver has no .remove callback, so when the driver unbinds
(e.g. via sysfs unbind) neither typec_switch_unregister() nor
typec_mux_unregister() is called. The framework reference taken in
typec_switch_register() (device_initialize() + device_add() in
drivers/usb/typec/mux.c) is therefore never dropped and the
typec_switch_dev / typec_mux_dev objects stay live forever, with
their sysfs entries under the typec_mux class also left behind. A
subsequent rebind cannot recreate them with the same fwnode-derived
name.
Save the registered handles and unregister them through
devm_add_action_or_reset() so framework registration is torn down
in step with the driver's other devm-managed state. While here,
drop struct apple_atcphy::sw and ::mux: they were declared with the
consumer-side types (typec_switch *, typec_mux *) instead of the
provider-side types and were never assigned.
Scope of the fix
================
This patch fixes the registration leak only. It does not close the
use-after-free window that arises when a consumer that obtained a
reference via fwnode_typec_switch_get() / fwnode_typec_mux_get()
outlives the provider unbind: such consumers keep the underlying
typec_switch_dev / typec_mux_dev alive past device_unregister(),
and a later typec_switch_set() / typec_mux_set() still invokes the
registered atcphy_sw_set() / atcphy_mux_set(), which dereferences
the freed apple_atcphy through typec_{switch,mux}_get_drvdata().
On Apple Silicon the relevant consumers are the typec port and the
cd321x controller registered by drivers/usb/typec/tipd/core.c.
Cable plug / orientation events and alt-mode transitions trigger
the .set callbacks via:
tps6598x_interrupt() drivers/usb/typec/tipd/core.c
tps6598x_handle_plug_event()
tps6598x_connect()/_disconnect()
typec_set_orientation() drivers/usb/typec/class.c
typec_switch_set(port->sw) drivers/usb/typec/mux.c
atcphy_sw_set() drivers/phy/apple/atc.c
cd321x_update_work() drivers/usb/typec/tipd/core.c
cd321x_typec_update_mode()
typec_mux_set(cd321x->mux) drivers/usb/typec/mux.c
atcphy_mux_set() drivers/phy/apple/atc.c
Closing that window requires framework support for invalidating
consumer-held references on provider unbind. The same
consumer-survives-provider pattern has been discussed for the PHY
framework [1] and is out of scope here.
