[PATCH] tc1100-wmi: add error checks in module_init

From: Akinobu Mita
Date: Sun Sep 21 2008 - 10:35:22 EST


There are sevaral bugs in module_init and module_exit for tc1100-wmi.

- No error handlings for platform_device_alloc() and platform_device_add()

- tc1100_device is not freeed in module_exit

This patch fixes these bugs by using platform_device_register_simple()
and platform_device_unregister() respectively.

This change needs to change the probe function to pass platform_device
to add_fs() and makes add_fs() use it rather than the variable tc1100_device.
Because tc1100_device is not initialized yet when probe function
is called. (tc1100_device is initialized as the return value from
platform_device_register_simple() but probe function is called in
platform_device_register_simple())
