If a call to device_create() fails for a channel during the initialize
loop, we need to clean the devices entries already created before
leaving.

Hi,

correct me if i'm wrong, but if we pre-decrement, it will decrement
before evaluate and the channel 0 will never be destroy.
So the while condition must change too accordingly.
In any case inside the while loop, "i" will be "i - 1" so we destroy the
previously device.
I think it's correct like this.
