Doc Text:	A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's `wifi: mt76: mt7915` driver. During the probe interrupt (IRQ) setup, if the `pci_alloc_irq_vectors()` or `devm_request_irq()` functions fail, a `hif2` reference is not properly released. This oversight results in a resource leak, which could potentially lead to system instability or a denial of service (DoS).	Story Points:	---

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-09-17 19:21:38 UTC

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

wifi: mt76: mt7915: release hif2 reference on probe IRQ failure

The hif2 reference obtained by mt7915_pci_init_hif2() is only released on
error paths that key off dev->hif2, which is not assigned until after the
IRQ setup. If pci_alloc_irq_vectors() or the primary devm_request_irq()
fails, the reference leaks. Drop it explicitly on those paths via
mt7915_put_hif2().
