I'm assuming it is this code which is doing the print:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.18/source/arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c#L469

Which suggests the area you are trying to unmap is not actually
mapped.

Your code is a bit confusing:

in probe you have:

+	hw->hw_addr = ioremap(pci_resource_start(pdev, 0),
+			      pci_resource_len(pdev, 0));

and remove:

+	iounmap(adapter->io_addr);

There is an assignment adapter->io_addr = hw->hw_addr; but this is
enough suggestion your structure of adapter and hw is not correct.

What i also notice is that release would normally things in the
opposite order to probe. That is not the case for your code.

Which does not explain what this function is doing.

It seems like you have two cases to cover:

A PCI problem during probe. This is probably the more likely case. You
just fail the probe.

A PCI problem during run time. What sort of recovery are you going to
do? Just print a warning and keep going, hope for the best?
