[PATCH 5.13 651/800] misc/pvpanic-mmio: Fix error handling in pvpanic_mmio_probe()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-07-12 09:03:36
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: char and misc drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Arnd Bergmann, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds

From: Christophe JAILLET <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 9a3c72ee6ffcd461bae1bbdf4e71dca6d5bc160c ]

There is no error handling path in the probe function.
Switch to managed resource so that errors in the probe are handled easily
and simplify the remove function accordingly.
