Call iio_buffer_unregister_legacy_sysfs_groups() in error path
to fix this.

Signed-off-by: Yang Yingliang <redacted>Hi Another good find, but I'd like to handle this one slightly differently. This is directly calling the unwind of something done deep in a function called by this one. That's not a clear structure though I can see you copied it from iio_buffers_free_sysfs_and_mask() (which will also need modification). This cleanup needs to be in __iio_buffer_free_sysfs_and_mask() which will need to take an additional parameter (index) so that we know we are on index == 0 and hence do the legacy cleanup. Thanks, Jonathan
