[PATCH] p54: Fix an error handling path in p54spi_probe()

[Christophe JAILLET]

If an error occurs after a successful call to p54spi_request_firmware(), it
must be undone by a corresponding release_firmware() as already done in
the error handling path of p54spi_request_firmware() and in the .remove()
function.

Add the missing call in the error handling path and update some goto
label accordingly.

Why "err_release_firmaware" rather than "err_release_firmware"? Otherwise the 
patch looks good.

Yes, good catch. That makes sense.

From what I know, "release_firmware(some *fw)" includes a check for
*fw != NULL already.

we could just add a single release_firmware(priv->firmware) to any of the error
paths labels (i.e.: err_free_common) and then we remove the extra
release_firmware(...) in p54spi_request_firmware so that we don't try to free
it twice.

(This also skips the need for having "err_release_firmaware" .. which
unfortunately has a small typo)

Regards,
Christian

Correct.

Not my favorite style, but if it is preferred this way, NP.

Sure. I'll add a comment to explain where is is released in case of error.
