From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> 3.4.107-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ commit 5539b3c938d64a60cb1fc442ac3ce9263d52de0c upstream. Memory allocated and references taken by of_gpiochip_add and acpi_gpiochip_add were never released on errors in gpiochip_add (e.g. failure to find free gpio range). Fixes: 391c970c0dd1 ("of/gpio: add default of_xlate function if device has a node pointer") Fixes: 664e3e5ac64c ("gpio / ACPI: register to ACPI events automatically") Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@xxxxxxxxxx> [lizf: Backported to 3.4: - move the call to of_gpiochip_add() into the above if condition. - remove the call to acpi_gpiochip_remove()] Signed-off-by: Zefan Li <lizefan@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c | 11 +++++------ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c index 112c16e..663570c 100644 --- a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c +++ b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c @@ -1081,19 +1081,18 @@ int gpiochip_add(struct gpio_chip *chip) ?
