This patch fixes the init function for the iio_simple_dummy driver. The main issues were absence of kfree for the allocated array, and no devices being removed in case the probe function fails, running in a loop. The iio_dummy_remove function was also changed: * The return value was changed to void * The check for return value of iio_simple_dummy_events_unregister() The reason for this changes is that, as per implementation, events_unregister function always returns 0, so we are safe not to check return value. As a result the return value for iio_dummy_remove function becomes useless as well, hence return value type change.
