1) This lacks a [PATCH v2] prefix

2) clocksrouce is not a valid subsytem

3) There is no memory mapping to free. Simply because that code maps a
   peripheral and not memory.

Stop acting like a shell script or your mail address ends up in one which
sends your mails immediately to /dev/null.

Ever heard about the concept of goto? Just adding blindly iounmap and kfree
at every place plugs the leak, but is far away from proper kernel code.
