is it ok, to create a new global variable that tracks if pdata was
alloced via devm_kzalloc and sets pdata to NULL in w1_gpio_remove?

If w1-gpio is probed via device-tree configuration, pdata is allocated

When the device is unbind (and bind later) the allocated memory of
pdate is freed - but it will not be allocacted again.
static int w1_gpio_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
struct w1_bus_master *master;
struct w1_gpio_platform_data *pdata = pdev->dev.platform_data;
int err;
if(pdata == NULL) {
if (of_have_populated_dt()) {
err = w1_gpio_probe_dt(pdev);
if (err < 0)
return err;
}
}
How to detect if pdata was allocated via device-tree devm_kzalloc and
not "hardcoded"?
Then I could set pdev->dev.platform_data to NULL in w1_gpio_remove
which will solve the crash.
Kind regards,
