[PATCH v1 0/1] AUXADC: Mediatek auxadc driver

[Hui Liu]

This series includes one patch:
1.Add mutex_destroy when probe fail and remove device.

Changes in patch v1:
1. In probe function, move mutex_destroy to "err_power_off".
2. In remove function, move mutex_destroy before "clk_disable_unprepare".

Hi Hui Liu,

Two things here.

1) You need to explain with a clear example flow when this would serve a
   useful purpose.  As I explained before, we do no in general put mutex_destroy()
   in remove paths as it is usually just noise.

2) It's in the wrong order logically. mutex init is between the clk_prepare_enable
   and iio_device_register, hence if we are going to have mutex destroy it must also
   be in that that location (remove should be reverse of probe or there should be
   a clear comment explaining why we need to do things in a different order.

3) If touching this code at all, please move all of the probe / remove to devm_
   managed code so that we don't need to get this ordering right at all because
   it will be done automatically.

So I won't apply this without 1 and even if I accepted the principle, it's
still in the wrong place in remove.

Jonathan
