From: Salah Triki <salah.triki@gmail.com> stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.128 commit abb6e07f46a740cda4f07d1b561ae4eaa7a1df42 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/8792 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit f65c75b0b9b5a390bc3beadcde0a6fbc3ad118f7 ] `css_alloc_subchannel()` calls `device_initialize()` before setting up the DMA masks. If `dma_set_coherent_mask()` or `dma_set_mask()` fails, the error path frees the subchannel structure directly, bypassing the device model reference counting. Once `device_initialize()` has been called, the embedded struct device must be released via `put_device()`, allowing the release callback to free the container structure. Fix the error path by dropping the initial device reference with `put_device()` instead of calling `kfree()` directly. This ensures correct device lifetime handling and avoids potential use-after-free or double-free issues.
