of: unittest: Fix memory leak in unittest_data_add()
In unittest_data_add(), if of_resolve_phandles() fails, the allocated unittest_data is not freed, leading to a memory leak. Fix this by using scope-based cleanup helper __free(kfree) for automatic resource cleanup. This ensures unittest_data is automatically freed when it goes out of scope in error paths. For the success path, use retain_and_null_ptr() to transfer ownership of the memory to the device tree and prevent double freeing. Fixes: 2eb46da2a760 ("of/selftest: Use the resolver to fixup phandles") Suggested-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> Co-developed-by: Jianhao Xu <jianhao.xu@seu.edu.cn> Signed-off-by: Jianhao Xu <jianhao.xu@seu.edu.cn> Signed-off-by: Zilin Guan <zilin@seu.edu.cn> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251231114915.234638-1-zilin@seu.edu.cn Signed-off-by: Rob Herring (Arm) <robh@kernel.org>
