Where would you suggest putting the iounmap?

You misunderstood -- you don't call release_mem_region() on the error path.

Which brings up a bigger question, why isn't there a remove hook.  I
vaguely remember there being some problem way back in the 2.6.18 time
frame that wouldn't allow this driver to be removed.

  The IDE drivers were generally undremovable back then.

Is that still a problem in newer kernels?

  No, shouldn't be -- they've been made removable since.
