Subject: [PATCH] leds-pca955x: Add proper error handling and fix bogus memory
 handling

Check the return value of led_classdev_register and unregister all registered
devices, if registering one device fails. Also the dynamic memory handling is
totally bogus. You can't allocate multiple chunks via kzalloc() and expect
them to be in order later. I wonder how this ever worked.

I don't have the hardware, so this is untested. Nate, could you give this patch
a try and see if it still works?
