In the error handling path, a successful 'vp_legacy_probe()' should be
balanced by a corresponding 'vp_legacy_remove()' call, as already done in
the remove function.

Add the missing call and update gotos accordingly.

Won't vp_legacy_remove() be triggered by the put_devic() below?
Hi, I'm sorry but i don't see how.

My understanding is that:
   - on "put_device(&eni_vdpa->vdpa.dev);", the corresponding release
function will be called.

   - This release function is the one recorded in the
'__vdpa_alloc_device()' function.

   - So it should be 'vdpa_release_dev()'.

   - This function, AFAIU, has no knowledge of 'vp_legacy_remove()' or
anything that could call it.


Unless I misread something or miss something obvious, I don't see how
'vp_legacy_remove() would be called.


Could you elaborate?
I think the device should release the driver (see
device_release_driver()) during during its deleting.

Thanks
