Hmm, yes, you are right there. You should try to disable it. But you would have
to do that such that you don't override the original error. One possibility
would
be to add an unconditional call to da9052_disable_vddout_channel() into the
error
path.
ret = da9052_reg_read(hwmon->da9052, DA9052_VDD_RES_REG);
if (ret < 0)
goto hwmon_err_release;
...
hwmon_err_release:
da9052_disable_vddout_channel(hwmon->da9052);
hwmon_err:
...
