In gpio_leds_create(), when devm_get_gpiod_from_child() fails with
-EPROBE_DEFER on the second gpio led to be created, the first already
registered led is not torn down properly. This causes create_gpio_led()
to fail for the first led on re-probe().

Fix this misbehaviour by incrementing num_leds only if all
potentially failing calls completed successfully.

For this patch:

Acked-by: Jacek Anaszewski <j.anaszewski@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Jacek, Thanks!

I have a question regarding the sequence above on line 201:

if (!led.name)
     return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);

Shouldn't this be also 'goto err"?

Yes, every error within the loop has to goto the err label.
Mind to send a patch fixing it?

OK, I'll take care of it.
