HID: trivial devm conversion for special hid drivers
It is safe to use devres allocation within the hid subsystem: - the devres release is called _after_ the call to .remove(), meaning that no freed pointers will exists while removing the device - if a .probe() fails, devres releases all the allocated ressources before going to the next driver: there will not be ghost ressources attached to a hid device if several drivers are probed. Given that, we can clean up a little some of the HID drivers. These ones are trivial: - there is only one kzalloc in the driver - the .remove() callback contains only one kfree on top of hid_hw_stop() - the error path in the probe is easy enough to be manually checked Signed-off-by: Benjamin Tissoires <benjamin.tissoires@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Andy Shevchenko <andy.shevchenko@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
