This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled iio: mma8452: Add missed iio_device_unregister() call in to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From d7369ae1f4d7cffa7574d15e1f787dcca184c49d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chuhong Yuan <hslester96@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 28 May 2020 14:41:21 +0800 Subject: iio: mma8452: Add missed iio_device_unregister() call in mma8452_probe() The function iio_device_register() was called in mma8452_probe(). But the function iio_device_unregister() was not called after a call of the function mma8452_set_freefall_mode() failed. Thus add the missed function call for one error case. Fixes: 1a965d405fc6 ("drivers:iio:accel:mma8452: added cleanup provision in case of failure.")
