I think this is a good change, but I would like you to improve
the description, and fix some different bugs introduced by your
change.
What you are specifically doing is checking for a null return
from devm_kcalloc() in gb_generate_enum_strings(), and are
returning the NULL pointer if that occurs. That means you
need to update all the callers of gb_generate_enum_strings()
to also handle a possible null return value.
The fix does a good thing, and your description is correct
about what you are fixing. But it should supply more
complete context for the change.
More below.

You can't simply return here. If you look a bit above this,
where the call to allocate a control structure is done, you
see that a NULL return there jumps to the "error" label, so
any already allocated and initialized control widgets get
cleaned up before returning.

You have basically the same issue here. You can't just return,
you must do some cleanup too.

Do you have this hardware? If so, we can add the driver, but given that
I did not think the chip ever actually shipped, it didn't make much
sense.

Do you want to drop it as it is causing problems for you? It's a good
example driver for those wanting to create a greybus host controller
driver so it's nice to have in the tree, unless you have a different one
that should be merged instead?

Hi Jorge.
Before we get to the platch please remember that you should send all
Greybus patches to greybus-dev(a)lists.linaro.org and
linux-kernel(a)vger.kernel.org. I will add them in now and leave all of
the context so other can see what you sent.

The part you're removing has all of the parameters at the same
indentation level and what you adding has them at two different
indentation levels so I'm not sure this is a step forward. Since the
kernel coding style doesn't address this specific case, AFAICS, I would
leave it as is despite the complaint. If others disagree then go ahead
as I really don't care much either way.

This looks fine. But it's so trivial... Are you aware
of *any* other similar trivial problems in comments that
could be fixed together with this? If so, I would prefer
that.
If you've looked, and there are no others:
