This serie was previously sent as a single patch.
After a comment from Dan Carpenter about an error handling path that could be
improved, I've looked deeper at the code and found other issues.

The previous patch corresponds to patch 3/4 in this serie.
This v2 takes Dan's comment into account and fix another resource leak.

Patch 1/4: svc_create_memory_pool returns an error code on error, not NULL 
Patch 2/4: undo a memremap on error path and remove funtion
Patch 3/4: improve error handling in the probe function
Patch 4/4: unrelated clean-up

Christophe JAILLET (4):
  firmware: stratix10-svc: Fix genpool creation error handling
  firmware: stratix10-svc: Unmap some previously memremap'ed memory
  firmware: stratix10-svc: Fix some error handling paths in
    'stratix10_svc_drv_probe()'
  firmware: stratix10-svc: Slighly simplify call

Such information is helpful.

How do you think about a wording variant like the following?

   Change description:
   * Use a check of the failure predicate which is documented for
     the svc_create_memory_pool() function in the same source file.

   * Move the genpool allocation behind a few devm_kzalloc() calls
     in order to ease exception handling.

Regards,
Markus

> While at it, also move a 'platform_device_put()' call to the error handling path.

How do you think about to use the message “Complete exception handling
in stratix10_svc_drv_probe()” in the final commit subject?

Can the label “err_put_device” be more appropriate for the improved
function implementation?
(Or: Would you like to omit the prefix “err_” for these jump targets?)

Markus

I would find it clearer to integrate also such small source code improvements
by separate patches.

Markus
