The err_remove_chip block is too coarse, and may perform cleanup that must not be done. E.g. if of_gpiochip_add() fails, of_gpiochip_remove() is still called, causing: OF: ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on /soc/gpio@e6050000 CPU: 1 PID: 20 Comm: kworker/1:1 Not tainted 5.1.0-rc2-koelsch+ #407 Hardware name: Generic R-Car Gen2 (Flattened Device Tree) Workqueue: events deferred_probe_work_func [<c020ec74>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<c020ae58>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [<c020ae58>] (show_stack) from [<c07c1224>] (dump_stack+0x7c/0x9c) [<c07c1224>] (dump_stack) from [<c07c5a80>] (kobject_put+0x94/0xbc) [<c07c5a80>] (kobject_put) from [<c0470420>] (gpiochip_add_data_with_key+0x8d8/0xa3c) [<c0470420>] (gpiochip_add_data_with_key) from [<c0473738>] (gpio_rcar_probe+0x1d4/0x314) [<c0473738>] (gpio_rcar_probe) from [<c052fca8>] (platform_drv_probe+0x48/0x94) and later, if a GPIO consumer tries to use a GPIO from a failed controller: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at lib/refcount.c:156 kobject_get+0x38/0x4c refcount_t: increment on 0; use-after-free.
