From: Damien Cassou <damien.cassou@xxxxxxx> The various devm_ functions allocate memory that is released when a driver detaches. This patch replaces the use of kzalloc by devm_kzalloc. Additionally, this patch fixes a memory leak: some memory was allocated for 'panel' but not released when the subsequent call to setup_vsync fails.
