[PATCH v2] docs: driver-api pinctrl cleanup

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

 



changelog:
v2
Replace FIXME comments in the pinctrl documentation example with
proper cleanup code:
- Add devm_pinctrl_put() calls in error paths 
  (pinctrl_lookup_state, pinctrl_select_state) 
  after successful devm_pinctrl_get()
- Set foo->p to NULL when devm_pinctrl_get() fails
- Add ret variable for cleaner error handling
- provides proper example of pinctrl resource management on failure
