Because there is no way to detect if the touchscreen has pen support,
the driver is allocating and registering the input_pen input_dev on
receiving the first pen event.

But this means that the input_dev gets allocated after the request_irq()
call which means that the devm framework will free it before disabling
the irq, leaving a window where the irq handler may run and reference the
free-ed input_dev.

To fix this move the allocation of the input_pen input_dev to before
the request_irq() call, while still only registering it on the first pen
event so that the driver does not advertise pen capability on touchscreens
without it (most goodix touchscreens do not have pen support).

I do not think you want to try and re-register input device if first
registration failed. You probably also don't want to waste time and
return early from here in case of failures.
Ack, I've fixed both for v2 of this patch-series.
