No, the release is done in opposite order of acquiring resources,
anything else would be madness and would not work.

The issue is this:

static void bu21013_disable_chip(void *_ts)
{
        struct bu21013_ts *ts = ts;

which shuts up gcc about the fact that 'ts' is uninitialized, it should
have said "ts = _ts". I guess it is a lesson for me to not call the voi
d pointer argument almost the same name as the structure, as it is easy
to miss in the review. The compiler would not care in either case, but a
human might have noticed.

Can you please try making this change (and the same in power off
handler)?

Thanks.
