Syzbot discovered that the probe error handling doesn't clean up the resources allocated in zr364xx_board_init(). There are several related bugs in this code so I have re-written the error handling.Dan: I recently sent in a patch for a similar problem in the gspca driver (commit e469d0b09a19 "media: gspca: Fix memory leak in probe"). It seems there may be similar issues in that driver: one single function call tries to undo an indeterminate number of initializations. I don't know enough about these subsystems to evaluate this. Can you take a look at it?
The probe error handling in gspca_dev_probe2() is fine now. All those functions are no-ops when they haven't been allocated/registered. regards, dan carpenter
