tidss uses devm_kzalloc to allocate DRM plane, encoder and crtc objects. This is not correct as the lifetime of those objects should be longer than the underlying device's. When unloading tidss module, the devm_kzalloc'ed objects have already been freed when tidss_release() is called, and the driver will accesses freed memory possibly causing a crash, a kernel WARN, or other undefined behavior, and also KASAN will give a bug.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
