platform/x86/intel/tpmi: use cleanup helpers in mem_write()

Published Aug 15, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

platform/x86/intel/tpmi: use cleanup helpers in mem_write()

In mem_write(), the temporary array returned by
parse_int_array_user() must be released on all exit paths.
Convert the array variable to use cleanup.h scope-based
cleanup so it is freed automatically on return.

This also moves the array declaration next to
parse_int_array_user() as required by cleanup.h usage
guidelines.
