This has been split in 3 patches because:
  - the root issue of patch 1 and 3 is not the same commit as the one for patch 2.
  - the strategy to fix the issues is not the same
     - patch 1: add a new call in the rror handling path
     - patch 3: switch to a resource managed function

They could be merged together if easier to review. The subject would then be
something like "gpio: mpc8xxx: Fix the error handling path of 'mpc8xxx_probe()'"

If prefered, 'devm_add_action_or_reset()' could be used to switch the probe to
a fully managed resource function and remove the 'remove' function.
That's mostly a matter of taste.

If such an option is preferred, I'm a bit puzzled by the
'irq_set_chained_handler_and_data()' call in the remove function because I
don't see why it is there.
Also see the comment at the end of patch 1 also related to this function call.

  gpio: mpc8xxx: Fix a resources leak in the error handling path of
    'mpc8xxx_probe()'
  gpio: mpc8xxx: Fix a potential double iounmap call in
    'mpc8xxx_probe()'
  gpio: mpc8xxx: Use 'devm_gpiochip_add_data()' to simplify the code and
    avoid a leak

Hi Christophe,

These look good but I'm leaving for a couple days in an hour so I
won't be able to send a PR to Linus before the next release. I'll make
these part of my regular PR for the upcoming merge window.
