With this command sequence:

  modprobe plip
  modprobe pps_parport
  rmmod pps_parport

the partport_pps modules causes this crash:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
  IP: parport_detach+0x1d/0x60 [pps_parport]
  Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
  ...
  Call Trace:
    parport_unregister_driver+0x65/0xc0 [parport]
    SyS_delete_module+0x187/0x210

The sequence that builds up to this is:

 1) plip is loaded and takes the parport device for exclusive use:

    plip0: Parallel port at 0x378, using IRQ 7.

 2) pps_parport then fails to grab the device:

    pps_parport: parallel port PPS client
    parport0: cannot grant exclusive access for device pps_parport
    pps_parport: couldn't register with parport0

 3) rmmod of pps_parport is then killed because it tries to access
    pardev->name, but pardev (taken from port->cad) is NULL.

So add a check for NULL in the test there too.

A platform_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the
driver core.

After the last architecture switched to generic hard irqs the config

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on
probe failure.  Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the device driver
data to NULL.

Instead of allocating a struct pps_gpio_platform_data in the DT case,
store the necessary information in struct pps_gpio_device_data itself.
This avoids an additional allocation and the ifdef.  It also gets rid of
some indirection.

Also use dev_err instead of pr_err in the changed code.

devm_kzalloc allocates memory that is released when a driver detaches.
This patch uses devm_kzalloc for data that is allocated in the probe
function of a platform device and is only freed in the remove function.
