[PATCH] Kernel Janitors patch to drivers_macintosh_ans-lcd.c
Working on the Linux Kernel Janitors project, and following up on Mikal Still's work there, I'd like to submit a patch for the Macintosh ANS LCD driver. I believe from Mikal's Patches page that his previous patch was rejected due to not cleaning up properly. I believe my patch addresses this issue, by calling iounmap() to free the IO remapping created by ioremap() earlier in the function, if the call to misc_register() fails for any reason. Unfortunately I don't know how to get this driver to compile on my machine, and therefore I can't even check that my patch compiles. If you can advise me how to set my machine up to dompile these drivers, then please get in touch =) I hope I didn't make any stupid mistakes in this patch either.
