Subject: [PATCH] power: supply: sbs-battery: disable polling before supply
teardown

The managed poll-work cancellation is registered before the power supply, so cleanup unregisters the supply before draining polling. A pending or running poller can then call power_supply_changed() on the released supply.

Commit 8d59cf3887fb ("power: supply: sbs-battery: Fix use-after-free in power_supply_changed()") moved the IRQ request after supply registration, but did not change the poll-work cancellation order.

Add a later managed action that disables and drains polling before supply teardown. Its retained disabled state prevents external-power callbacks from rearming the poll work after it has been drained. Keep the original autocancel to initialize work before supply callbacks can run and to cover failed supply registration.

The teardown ordering issue was found by static analysis.

Fixes 6d0c5de2fd84 ("power: supply: Clean-up few drivers by using managed work init")
