[PATCH] pinctrl: pinconf-generic: fix properties bitmap leak in parse_fw_cfg()
Posted by Felix Gu 1 month, 3 weeks ago
In parse_fw_cfg(), if fwnode_property_match_property_string() fails with
-ENOENT, the code returns directly and leaks the bitmap.

Use __free(bitmap) for automatic cleanup to fix the leak.

Fixes: 9c105255108b ("pinctrl: pinconf-generic: perform basic checks on pincfg properties")
