That's not very true : the "need" is to spare the "manual" kfree you're adding
in your patch for one, and make it consistent with pxa2xx_build_groups() and
pxa2xx_build_state() for two.

Therefore I'm not very thrilled by this patch and unless it fixes a defect in
the driver I'd rather not have it in.

Cheers.
