I could also just return it when the function exits and only free it when we exit the probe function with a negative value. The reason I put it in here was that on probe deferral, the pin simply gets blocked.
However, I could probably also just completely take the gpio_free() out of this patch and resubmit, as it should be pretty much unrelated. Then you can patch it properly.
