In this day and age where error paths don't get any testing, and are
frequently buggy, where we have alternative APIs which make those paths
more reliable, I think we should do everything to make use of that.

And, to prove the point, your error paths are buggy.  Yes, you release
the mem region correctly (well done for picking the right interface for
that!) but the ioremap() is never cleaned up.

So, any chance of converting the above to devm_request_and_ioremap() ?

Thanks.
