[PATCH 0/8] video: fbdev: au1200fb: Fix error handling path of 'au1200fb_drv_probe()'

This patch serie tries to fix several issues found in the error handling
code of 'au1200fb_drv_probe()'.
The 5 first patches fixes various issues (double free, missing error code,
un-released resources on error, incorrect IRQ releasing and incomplete
error handling path)

The 3 last patches are just cleanups.


I've spilt the serie in 8 steps that look logical to me. They could
also be merged together if preferred.


These patches are provided as-is and ARE NOT even compile-tested (sorry in
advance if a patch is broken) because I don't have a cross compiler for MIPS
and won't install one.


This serie already goes further that the fixes I usually provide, so
please excuse me if I missed something or if it is somehow broken and/or
incomplete.
