Nicolas,

.queue_setup is a dev_ops, which means it is invoked after the .probe
function was called.
Failing to allocate dev_private shoud have been detected earlier, is
that correct?
If so, this check should simply be dropped, and there is no leak to fix.

Please confirm when you have the time.

Thanks.
