[PATCH 1/5] perf/arm_pmu_acpi: fix reference leak in arm_pmu_acpi_probe error path

[Valery Borovsky]

Yeah, you're right, my bad. The `arm_pmu_acpi.c` patch is definitely broken.

Since `spe_dev` and `trbe_dev` are statically allocated, they don't have a
`.dev.release` callback. If we hit `platform_device_put()` here, the refcount
drops to zero and triggers `device_release()`, which is going to scream about
the missing release function. At best, we get a messy WARN; at worst, it'll
panic the kernel if someone's running with `panic_on_warn`.

The kernel-doc note about `platform_device_put()` is really meant for dynamic
allocations where the release path actually frees memory. For static setups
like this, the original code is actually the right way to go.

Please drop patches 1/5 through 4/5 from the v1 series—they all suffer from
the same logic error. Patch 5/5 (mfd: sm501) is the only clean one, so I've
re-sent that as a standalone v2.

Sorry for the noise.
