Hi Andrew,

I misunderstood you. I thought that you were trying to imply on your original comment that retval was _already_ -EINVAL at that point.

Now I see the issue. `this' should be freed if successfully parsed (!ret) or if invalid and not going to be passed to a SDIO driver (ret == -EINVAL).

Thanks for catching that. I'll send an updated patch.

Cheers,
Albert
