Subject: [PATCH 0/3 v2] thermal: core: Fix some error handling code in 'thermal_zone_device_register()'

These patches fix some issue in the error handling path in
'thermal_zone_device_register()'

The first patch adds some new helper function in order to ease the resource
management.
Maybe using devm_ variant could also be a better choise to free manage
these resources. As it would be a bigger change, I've not looked at it at
all at the moment.
Also, note that this patch triggers a checkpatch warning about missing
identifier name in function definition. I've left it as is to keep the
style of the .h file.

The 2nd patch makes use of the new helper function.

The 3rd patch reorders the error handling path of
'thermal_zone_device_register()' in order to avoid the leaks.

*** These patches have been compiled tested only. ***

I also unsure about the right place for 'ida_simple_remove' in patch 3/3.


v1 -> v2:
- add some helper functions in order to release some resources more
easily
- split the error handling path into 2. One before a successful call to
'device_register()', and one after


Christophe JAILLET (3):
thermal: core: Add some new helper functions to free resources
thermal: core: Use the new 'thermal_zone_destroy_device_groups()'
helper function
thermal: core: Fix resources release in error paths in
thermal_zone_device_register()

Subject: [PATCH 1/3 v2] thermal: core: Add some new helper functions to free resources

In order to easily free resources allocated by
'thermal_zone_create_device_groups()' we need 2 new helper functions.

The first one undoes 'thermal_zone_create_device_groups()'.
The 2nd one undoes 'create_trip_attrs()', which is a function called by
'thermal_zone_create_device_groups()'.

These functions will be used in patch 2/3 in order to simplify
'thermal_release()'
I've tried to implement it as close a possible as the way the resources have
been allocated.
However, in 'thermal_release()', the code is simplier without some
additionnal 'if'.
No sure if we should prefer consistancy with allocation or simplicity of code.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3 v2] thermal: core: Fix resources release in error paths in thermal_zone_device_register()

Reorder error handling code in order to fix some resources leaks in some
cases:
- 'tz' would leak if 'thermal_zone_create_device_groups()' fails
- memory allocated by 'thermal_zone_create_device_groups()' would leak
if 'device_register()' fails

With this patch, we now have 2 error handling paths: one before
'device_register()', and one after it.
This is needed because some resources are released in 'thermal_release()'.

Should 'ida_simple_remove()' be folded somehow into 'thermal_release()'?

tz->trips is an integer represents the number of trip points.

We add this check because there is not any trips attributes if we don't
have any trip points.
It is true that the code also works if we don't have this check as
destroy_trip_attrs() would be no-op when tz->trips equals 0.
