Subject: [PATCH 3.8 45/65] ARM: imx: fix error handling in ipu device registration

3.8.13.25 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Emil Goode <emilgoode@...il.com>

commit d1d70e5dc2cfa9047bb935c41ba808ebb8135696 upstream.

If we fail to allocate struct platform_device pdev we
dereference it after the goto label err.

This bug was found using coccinelle.

Fixes: afa77ef (ARM: mx3: dynamically allocate "ipu-core" devices)
