I am thinking I can just add the below statement, and should be able to
remove repeated release.

return error ? error : count;


That would make us sleep for CMA3000_SETDELAY even in case of failure...
... But that should be OK.

I suppose it should not sleep if its the modified code segment as below

       error = CMA3000_SET(data, CMA3000_CTRL, ctrl, "ctrl");
       if (error < 0)
               goto err_op3_failed;

       /* Settling time delay required after mode change */
       msleep(CMA3000_SETDELAY);

err_op3_failed:
       enable_irq(data->client->irq);
err_op2_failed:
       mutex_unlock(&data->mutex);
err_op1_failed:
       return (error ? error : count);

Not sure I fully understand your comments.
Currently probe would return a failure.


You have a check for data->client->irq != 0 and finish probe() with
success in case it is 0. The question is what is the use of the
device/driver combo in case when data->client->irq == 0?

Yes agreed, will add a error scenario when data->client->irq == 0
