I fear there's some confusion there. There are two different patches
fixing error paths in cs4270. One fixing a fallout from the new-style
i2c driver conversion (in cs4270_i2c_probe), under name "ASoC: Fix
another cs4270 error path". This one you pushed to Linus last night.

But there's another one, named "ASoC: Fix cs4270 error path",
originally posted by myself on August 31st, fixing the error path of
cs4270_probe. This is the one Timur was just acking, but I do _not_ see
it in your queue, so I suspect you missed it. I can resend it if it
helps.

Thanks,
