[ Upstream commit 82ad759143 ]
This patch fixes a bug that prevents freeing the reset gpio on unloading
the module.
aic3x_i2c_probe is called when loading the module and it calls list_add
with a probably uninitialized list entry aic3x->list (next = prev = NULL)).
So even if list_del is called it does nothing and in the end the gpio_reset
is not freed. Then a repeated module probing fails silently because
gpio_request fails.
When moving INIT_LIST_HEAD to aic3x_i2c_probe we also have to move
list_del to aic3x_i2c_remove because aic3x_remove may be called
multiple times without aic3x_i2c_remove being called which leads to
a NULL pointer dereference.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
