The gpi_ch_init() error handling paths do not fully clean up resources when channel initialization fails. The unwind paths iterate over the original channel pointer instead of the channels stored in gpii->gchan[], preventing previously initialized sibling channels from being properly reset and deallocated. In addition, gpi_alloc_chan_resources() allocates ch_ring before calling gpi_ch_init(), but does not release it when initialization fails, resulting in a memory leak. The event ring cleanup path also leaves the PM state unchanged after freeing the ring. As a result, subsequent cleanup may incorrectly assume that the ring is still allocated, leading to a redundant EV_CMD_DEALLOC command and an attempt to deallocate an already released ring. Fix the unwind paths to operate on the correct channels, release ch_ring when channel initialization fails, and restore the event ring PM state after freeing the ring.
