phy: apple: atc: Fix typec switch/mux leak on unbind
atcphy_probe_switch() and atcphy_probe_mux() discard the pointers returned by typec_switch_register() and typec_mux_register(). The platform driver has no .remove callback, so when the driver unbinds (e.g. via sysfs unbind) neither typec_switch_unregister() nor typec_mux_unregister() is called. The framework reference taken in typec_switch_register() (device_initialize() + device_add() in drivers/usb/typec/mux.c) is therefore never dropped and the typec_switch_dev / typec_mux_dev objects stay live forever, with their sysfs entries under the typec_mux class also left behind. A subsequent rebind cannot recreate them with the same fwnode-derived name. Save the registered handles and unregister them through devm_add_action_or_reset() so framework registration is torn down in step with the driver's other devm-managed state. While here, drop struct apple_atcphy::sw and ::mux: they were declared with the consumer-side types (typec_switch *, typec_mux *) instead of the provider-side types and were never assigned. Scope of the fix ================ This patch fixes the registration leak only. It does not close the use-after-free window that arises when a consumer that obtained a reference via fwnode_typec_switch_get() / fwnode_typec_mux_get() outlives the provider unbind: such consumers keep the underlying typec_switch_dev / typec_mux_dev alive past device_unregister(), and a later typec_switch_set() / typec_mux_set() still invokes the registered atcphy_sw_set() / atcphy_mux_set(), which dereferences the freed apple_atcphy through typec_{switch,mux}_get_drvdata(). On Apple Silicon the relevant consumers are the typec port and the cd321x controller registered by drivers/usb/typec/tipd/core.c. Cable plug / orientation events and alt-mode transitions trigger the .set callbacks via: tps6598x_interrupt() drivers/usb/typec/tipd/core.c tps6598x_handle_plug_event() tps6598x_connect()/_disconnect() typec_set_orientation() drivers/usb/typec/class.c typec_switch_set(port->sw) drivers/usb/typec/mux.c atcphy_sw_set() drivers/phy/apple/atc.c cd321x_update_work() drivers/usb/typec/tipd/core.c cd321x_typec_update_mode() typec_mux_set(cd321x->mux) drivers/usb/typec/mux.c atcphy_mux_set() drivers/phy/apple/atc.c Closing that window requires framework support for invalidating consumer-held references on provider unbind. The same consumer-survives-provider pattern has been discussed for the PHY framework [1] and is out of scope here.
