Hi,

According to surrounding goto, it is likely that 'goto err_probed_panel' is
expected here.
This change is just done in order to silence some coccinelle scripts
which try to detect wrongly ordered goto.

If 'info->fb[HEAD_PANEL]' and' 'info->fb[HEAD_CRT]' are both NULL, this
means that no 'framebuffer_alloc' has been performed, so 'goto err_alloc'
looks fine.
Anyway, it is also harmless in this case to call 'framebuffer_release'.
The code looks more straight forward.

It seems that the code for supporting only selected framebuffers
(only HEAD_PANEL fb or only HEAD_CRT fb) is broken anyway as at least
the suspend/resume support assumes that both framebuffers are always
present. Also all sm501fb driver users always try try to initialize
both framebuffers. Therefore I would prefer the removal of non-working
individual framebuffers support (the code that your patch modifies
would be removed as well). Could you please look into it?
