[PATCH 2/4] staging: dgap: implement proper error handling in dgap_firmware_load()

From: Daeseok Youn
Date: Mon May 26 2014 - 06:24:34 EST


When dgap_tty_init() and dgap_tty_register_ports() are failed,
these are needed to free some memory properly.

It can be handled by calling dgap_tty_uninit() and dgap_cleanup_board().
But tty's ports are not registered yet when these function are failed,
so brd->nasync set to zero.
