I got memory leak as follows when doing fault injection test:
unreferenced object 0xffff888020a7a680 (size 64):
comm "i2c-mcp23018-41", pid 23090, jiffies 4295160544 (age 8.680s)

If pinctrl_claim_hogs() fails, the 'pindesc' allocated in pinctrl_register_one_pin()
need be freed.

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.
