   Hi Sean,

   Thanks for the review! You're absolutely right about the incorrect 
Fixes: tag.

   Here's v3 with the correct Fixes tags pointing to the actual commits that
   introduced the resource leaks:

   - ee5bb35d2b83 introduced the pcim_iomap_region() direct return
   - 222606f43b58 introduced the devm_kmemdup() direct return

   Thanks again for catching that.

   Regards,
   Hongling
