[ Upstream commit 51e6ed83bb4ade7c360551fa4ae55c4eacea354b ]
Driver failed to release all memory allocated. This would lead to memory
leak during driver removal.
Properly free memory when the module is removed.

May curly brackets be omitted here?

Thanks, Markus. I agree with you and have no objection. However, for
the stable branches, we usually keep the patches unchanged.
I think it would be good to remove these curly braces in the Linux
master branch as well. Should I go ahead and submit a patch for the
master branch too?

Shivani

Markus, you seem to have sent a nonsensical or otherwise pointless review comment to a patch submission on a Linux kernel developer mailing list. I strongly suggest that you not do this anymore. Please do not bother developers who are actively working to produce patches and features with comments that, in the end, are a waste of time. Patch submitter, please ignore Markus's suggestion; you do not need to follow it at all. The person/bot/AI that sent it is being ignored by almost all Linux kernel maintainers for having a persistent pattern of behavior of producing distracting and pointless commentary, and inability to adapt to feedback. Please feel free to also ignore emails from them. thanks, greg k-h's patch email bot
