What type of static analysis rule would have caught this issue? If you know of one, please write it so we can ensure it never happens again.

Also, unit tests are great to have we gladly accept patches that add them. Some code, like the resource management logic, does have them, and they are invaluable in testing changes in those areas of the kernel. Please send us more!

I am somewhat surprised that Coverity didn't catch this - https://scan.coverity.com/projects/linux.
