Sorry, I still haven't done a proper review.

"tmp" is inaccurate. It's not a tmp variable. Use par_dev or
something.

Don't print warnings on kmalloc() failure.

out is a bad label name. Use err_put_port or something descriptive.

I think kzalloc() is better here. That way if the ->init_state()
functions don't set it, then we know it's zeroed out.

I wonder who frees this name variable. My concern is that it gets
freed before we are done using it or something. (I have not looked at
the details).

handle sounds like a function pointer. It should be private_data.

kstrdup() can fail.

out_free_all is a bad label name. It should be free_state. Except the
most recently allocated resource is devname. It should be
goto free_devname. The beauty of labeling things this way is that you
only have to read back a few lines to see what is being freed.

Not really needed because this was allocated with kzalloc(), of course.
But sometimes people like to say things twice for documentation so
that's also fine.

I don't understand this test_and_set_bit() condition. It's weird to me
that parport_register_dev() succeeds even though we haven't called
parport_device_proc_register(tmp).

Put a blank line here.
