Thanks, I will remove those labels, and modify to dev_err_probe in previous probe return.

Sorry, I can't catch your point.
Do you mean remove devm_free_irq(&pdev->dev, i2c_bus->irq, i2c_bus);
Keep i2c_del_adapter(&i2c_bus->adap) here, because interrupt is called while i2c adapter is unregistered ?

Best regards,
