commite9e6aa51b2upstream. There was strange error handling logic in case of fw load failure. For some reason fw loader callback was doing clean up stuff when fw is not available. I don't see any reason behind doing this. Since this driver doesn't have EEPROM firmware let's just disconnect it in case of fw load failure. Doing clean up stuff in 2 different place which can run concurently is not good idea and syzbot found 2 bugs related to this strange approach. So, in this pacth I deleted all clean up code from fw callback and made a call to device_release_driver() under device_lock(parent) in case of fw load failure. This approach is more generic and it defend driver from UAF bugs, since all clean up code is moved to one place.
