    usb: musb: dsps: Fix the probe error path · c2115b2b

    Commit 7c75bde3 ("usb: musb: musb_dsps: request_irq() after
    initializing musb") has inverted the calls to
    dsps_setup_optional_vbus_irq() and dsps_create_musb_pdev() without
    updating correctly the error path. dsps_create_musb_pdev() allocates and
    registers a new platform device which must be unregistered and freed
    with platform_device_unregister(), and this is missing upon
    dsps_setup_optional_vbus_irq() error.
    
    While on the master branch it seems not to trigger any issue, I observed
    a kernel crash because of a NULL pointer dereference with a v5.10.70
    stable kernel where the patch mentioned above was backported. With this
    kernel version, -EPROBE_DEFER is returned the first time
    dsps_setup_optional_vbus_irq() is called which triggers the probe to
    error out without unregistering the platform device. Unfortunately, on
    the Beagle Bone Black Wireless, the platform device still living in the
    system is being used by the USB Ethernet gadget driver, which during the
    boot phase triggers the crash.
    
    My limited knowledge of the musb world prevents me to revert this commit
    which was sent to silence a robot warning which, as far as I understand,
    does not make sense. The goal of this patch was to prevent an IRQ to
    fire before the platform device being registered. I think this cannot
    ever happen due to the fact that enabling the interrupts is done by the
    ->enable() callback of the platform musb device, and this platform
    device must be already registered in order for the core or any other
    user to use this callback.
    
    Hence, I decided to fix the error path, which might prevent future
    errors on mainline kernels while also fixing older ones.
