True.

I think we can drop this "Fixes" tag, as it gives no real info.

Ok.

HP300 are old HP machines with an m68k CPU.
Not sure if someone still has such a machine :-)

This driver hasn't changed in years, and I don't expect we will
have many other changes, so in this case I think simply adding the one line:
+	release_mem_region(d->resource.start, resource_size(&d->resource));
here is sufficient without adding additional jump targets.

I can fix it up here, or please send a new patch.
