Thank you for your patch Jiasheng, just a few small requests below.

I think "Failed to read second value of qcom,protection-domain" would be
more useful. Probably no need to include "ret".

I unfortunately do not fancy the goto dance here. Please add
put_device() in each of the error cases above.

I would prefer this label to be named "out".
