Hi, Yingliang,

Thank you for your patches, but could you please merge the two trivial
patches to a single one?
It's OK to merge them into a single one in v2.
But the two patches solved different things, they are not relative.

Thanks,
Yang

Current the return value of 'sub_driver->init' is not checked,
if sparse_keymap_setup() called in the init function fails,
'generic_inputdev' is freed, then it willl lead a UAF when
using it in generic_acpi_laptop_init(). Fix it by checking
return value. Set generic_inputdev to NULL after free to avoid
double free it.
