Can you clarify? I don't think I understand which brace we need to close
here.

Agreed, it will look better.

Thanks for catching this. Freeing it at func_end is not a very good
idea, because it's also freed above. 

What do you think if I replace the last two calls for
create_chirp_list() with just INIT_LIST_HEAD()? This way we'll have only
one error check where we'll also kfree(pchnl) and we'll have 2 less
un-necessary function calls / error checks.

Ionut.
