[PATCH 1/6] gpio: fix memory and reference leaks in gpiochip_add error path
From: Johan Hovold
Date: Mon Jan 12 2015 - 11:13:39 EST
Memory allocated and references taken by of_gpiochip_add and
acpi_gpiochip_add were never released on errors in gpiochip_add (e.g.
failure to find free gpio range).
Fixes: 391c970c0dd1 ("of/gpio: add default of_xlate function if device
has a node pointer")
Fixes: 664e3e5ac64c ("gpio / ACPI: register to ACPI events
automatically")
