[PATCH v1 4/4] KVM: arm64: selftests: Free the VM when the GIC device probe fails
From: Fuad Tabba
Date: Thu Sep 17 2026 - 05:26:27 EST
test_kvm_device() creates a VM to probe the GIC version under test and
returns without freeing it when the probe fails, in vgic_init and in
its vgic_v5 copy. Free it on that path.
