Boerge Struempfel 324df6ecda gpiolib: sysfs: Fix error handling on failed export
[ Upstream commit 95dd1e34ff5bbee93a28ff3947eceaf6de811b1a ]

If gpio_set_transitory() fails, we should free the GPIO again. Most
notably, the flag FLAG_REQUESTED has previously been set in
gpiod_request_commit(), and should be reset on failure.

To my knowledge, this does not affect any current users, since the
gpio_set_transitory() mainly returns 0 and -ENOTSUPP, which is converted
to 0. However the gpio_set_transitory() function calles the .set_config()
function of the corresponding GPIO chip and there are some GPIO drivers in
which some (unlikely) branches return other values like -EPROBE_DEFER,
and -EINVAL. In these cases, the above mentioned FLAG_REQUESTED would not
be reset, which results in the pin being blocked until the next reboot.

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.
