[PATCH] video: fbdev: lcd_mipid: Fix a memory leak in an error handling path

From: Christophe JAILLET <hidden>
Date: 2021-05-08 20:23:51
Also in: dri-devel, kernel-janitors, linux-omap, lkml
Subsystem: framebuffer layer, omap framebuffer support, the rest · Maintainers: Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds

If 'mipid_detect()' fails, we must free 'md' to avoid a memory leak.

While at it, modernize the function:
   - remove a useless message in case of memory allocation failure
   - change a '== NULL' into a '!'

Fixes: 66d2f99d0bb5 ("omapfb: add support for MIPI-DCS compatible LCDs")
