If the call to devm_spi_register_master() fails on probe of the GPIO SPI driver, the spi_master struct is erroneously not freed: After allocating the spi_master, its reference count is 1. The driver unconditionally decrements the reference count on unbind using a devm action. Before calling devm_spi_register_master(), the driver unconditionally increments the reference count because on success, that function will decrement the reference count on unbind. However on failure, devm_spi_register_master() does *not* decrement the reference count, so the spi_master is leaked. The issue was introduced by commits 8b797490 ("spi: gpio: Make sure spi_master_put() is called in every error path") and 79567c1a ("spi: gpio: Use devm_spi_register_master()"), which sought to plug leaks introduced by 9b00bc7b ("spi: spi-gpio: Rewrite to use GPIO descriptors") but missed this remaining leak. The situation was later aggravated by commit d3b0ffa1 ("spi: gpio: prevent memory leak in spi_gpio_probe"), which introduced a use-after-free because it releases a reference on the spi_master if devm_add_action_or_reset() fails even though the function already does that. Fix by switching over to the new devm_spi_alloc_master() helper.
