Please, do not dereference fwnode pointers. Also, why can't you use the device instead of fwnode?
We are doing "acpi_dev_put(adev);" a few lines above, so using adev in the call to fwnode_gpiod_get_index() is technically use-after-free, isn't it?
Right, but I believe this is in response to the author and not to me.
Also, why can't we do
cs35l41->reset_gpio = gpiod_get_index(acpi_dev, "reset", cs35l41->index, GPIOD_OUT_LOW);
since acpi_dev is device structure corresponding to adev and we are getting the rest of the properties from it?
I remembered that I have also stumbled over that, but IIRC the point here is that ACPI tables might be broken (since the multi-instance device is a gray area to begin with). So we need clarification from Cirrus to understand what the cases they want to cover with this twisted code to get a GPIO.
I saw downthread that there was supposed to be a patch addressing several issues raised by Andy, was it ever submitted?
