Arvind, thanks for patch and good catch.

Yes Dan, You are correct, this should be free in __gb_lights_led_unregister(), and not here. > > > Signed-off-by: Arvind Yadav <arvind.yadav...@gmail.com> > > --- > > drivers/staging/greybus/light.c | 9 ++++++--- > > 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/greybus/light.c > > b/drivers/staging/greybus/light.c > > index 3f4148c..b00d47c 100644 > > --- a/drivers/staging/greybus/light.c > > +++ b/drivers/staging/greybus/light.c > > @@ -984,7 +984,7 @@ static int gb_lights_channel_config(struct gb_light > > *light, > > > > ret = channel_attr_groups_set(channel, cdev); > > if (ret < 0) > > - return ret; > > + goto err; > > > > gb_lights_led_operations_set(channel, cdev); > > > > @@ -994,15 +994,18 @@ static int gb_lights_channel_config(struct gb_light > > *light, > > * configurations. > > */ > > if (!is_channel_flash(channel)) > > - return ret; > > + goto err; > > "ret" is zero here.

It should be return 0; from the start, you are right, but that would be a complete different change than the actual fix that now goes far away from this code.
