Does it makes sense for me to include that tag in this patch?

It's not really a fix but rather creating a new feature through debugfs.
I am wondering if it might confuse people reading the git log as to
whether the Reported-by: was with regards to the addition of
'pinmux-select' to debugfs, rather than it was just reporting that my
goto handling was incorrect.

I think it makes sense for me to mention that in the PATCH changelog but
that won't be in the git commit message.

Thank you, yes, I should have caught this.

Andy replied already that it is incorrect for me to be using devm_*() in
the debugfs write operation. I'll be changing the code to use normal
kzalloc() and thus will need to keep the goto error handling (but with
the correct order as you pointed out).
