Here are the examples:
6191e49de389 ("pinctrl: baytrail: Simplify code with cleanup helpers")
1d1b4770d4b6 ("platform/x86/intel/vsec: Use cleanup.h")
e2eeddefb046 ("pstore: inode: Convert mutex usage to guard(mutex)")

Some advanced stuff:
ced085ef369a ("PCI: Introduce cleanup helpers for device reference counts and locks")

Hope this helps.
