mainlining shenanigans
6740de9433
There were a couple problems with error handling in the probe function:
1) If the "drvdata" allocation failed then it lead to a NULL
dereference.
2) On several error paths we decremented "nr_cti_cpu" before it was
incremented which lead to a reference counting bug.
There were also some parts of the error handling which were not bugs but
were messy. The error handling was confusing to read. It printed some
unnecessary error messages.
The simplest way to fix these problems was to create a cti_pm_setup()
function that did all the power management setup in one go. That way
when we call cti_pm_release() we don't have to deal with the
complications of a partially configured power management config.
I reversed the "if (drvdata->ctidev.cpu >= 0)" condition in
cti_pm_release() so that it mirros the new cti_pm_setup() function.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
