Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

PCI/pwrctrl: Fix double cleanup on devm_add_action_or_reset() failure

When devm_add_action_or_reset() fails, it calls the passed cleanup function. Hence the caller must not repeat that cleanup.

Replace the "goto err_regulator_free" by the actual freeing, as there will never be a need again for a second user of this label.
