[PATCH] gpiolib: sysfs: Fix improper error handling on failed export

From: Boerge Struempfel
Date: Thu Nov 23 2023 - 08:30:08 EST


If gpio_set_transitory fails, we should free the gpio again. Most
notably, the flag FLAG_REQUESTED has previously been set in
gpiod_request_commit, and should be reset on failure.
