ishtp_bus_remove_device(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this is ishtp_bus_remove_device(9) from the Kernel API Manual — literally the function to relase a device on the bus, and yes bestie we’re keeping that spelling energy 😭💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ishtp_bus_remove_device (struct ishtp_cl_device *device );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• device — the client device instance, aka the actual struct ishtp_cl_device * bestie is handing over 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This is literally the counterpart of ishtp_bus_add_device — the device gets unregistered, and the device structure is freed in the ishtp_cl_dev_release function. No cap, that’s the whole vibe. 💀

It’s called only during an error in the pci driver init path, so yeah — this is giving “error-path cleanup only” energy, and it’s not out here doing main character work during normal operation 🌸
