[PATCH 6.6 082/254] dmaengine: idxd: fix device leaks on compat bind and unbind

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2026-01-28 15:30:56
Also in: stable

6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>

commit 799900f01792cf8b525a44764f065f83fcafd468 upstream.

Make sure to drop the reference taken when looking up the idxd device as
part of the compat bind and unbind sysfs interface.

Fixes: 6e7f3ee97bbe ("dmaengine: idxd: move dsa_drv support to compatible mode")
