## Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  platform/x86/amd/pmc: Fix LPS0 and debugfs leaks when STB init fails  amd_pmc_probe() registers the LPS0 s2idle handler with acpi_register_lps0_dev() and creates the driver's debugfs directory before calling amd_stb_s2d_init(), which is the last step in probe that can fail.  When amd_stb_s2d_init() fails (for example the S2D telemetry region cannot be ioremapped on a long-running system, or the SMU rejects the S2D setup) the error path only calls pci_dev_put() and returns.  This leaves amd_pmc_s2idle_dev_ops on the global lps0_s2idle_devops_head list and leaks the debugfs directory, while the devm-managed resources backing the handler are torn down.  Reloading the module then walks the corrupted list in acpi_register_lps0_dev() and hits:    list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev, but was NULL.   kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:29!    acpi_register_lps0_dev+0x44/0x80    amd_pmc_probe+0x224/0x380 [amd_pmc]    platform_probe+0x67/0x90  Even without a reload, the stale registration means the next s2idle transition calls into torn-down driver state.  Unwind the debugfs directory and the LPS0 registration on the amd_stb_s2d_init() error path.  acpi_unregister_lps0_dev() is safe to call unconditionally here: it is guarded on the same conditions as acpi_register_lps0_dev(), which is exactly what amd_pmc_remove() already relies on.
