[PATCH v1 1/3] media: sun4i-csi: fix video device and subdev leak in notify_complete()

[Cong Nguyen]

sun4i_csi_notify_complete() registers the bridge subdev with
v4l2_device_register_subdev() and the video device with
sun4i_csi_v4l2_register() (which calls video_register_device()) before it
creates the media pad links and registers the subdev nodes. If any of the
later steps fail, the error path only unregistered the media device:

	err_clean_media:
		media_device_unregister(&csi->mdev);
		return ret;

The already registered video device and bridge subdev were left behind.
Because this failure propagates back through v4l2_async_nf_register() and
aborts probe, the driver's devm-managed struct sun4i_csi (which embeds the
video_device) is freed while /dev/videoX is still registered, so a
subsequent open() from userspace dereferences freed memory.

Unwind the registrations in reverse order on error, mirroring the teardown
in sun4i_csi_remove(): unregister the video device with
vb2_video_unregister_device() and the bridge subdev with
v4l2_device_unregister_subdev(). Also unwind the intermediate v4l2/media
registration steps so every early return leaves no half-registered state.
