If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Christian Marangi [ Upstream commit 0fe1e3e8f3380d7862296a73b528d164e96c76b8 ] In phylink_create() if phylink_register_sfp() returns an error, link_gpio obtained by phylink_parse_fixedlink() is never released. While this is a very unlikely scenario, it's worth to fix/handle this. This was present from the very first implementation of phylink but got relevant only with the introduction of ce0aa27ff3f6 ("sfp: add sfp-bus to bridge between network devices and sfp cages") where additional function were added after phylink_parse_fixedlink() making the release of link_gpio needed if such additional function errored out. While at it, restructure the exit condition of phylink_create() with the goto pattern to reduce code duplication on handling error conditions.
