From 225fce83cb72e1bffb712a33ce47c210c770f8ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2015 17:12:25 +0100 Subject: gpio: fix gpio-chip list corruption Fix potential corruption of gpio-chip list due to failure to remove the chip from the list before returning in gpiochip_add error path. The chip could be long gone when the global list is next traversed, something which could lead to a null-pointer dereference. In the best case (chip not deallocated) we are just leaking the gpio range.
