Subject: [PATCHv2 2/5] cpuidle: fix error handling in __cpuidle_register_device

From: [email-masked] (Colin Cross)
Date: Wed, 14 Mar 2012 11:29:51 -0700

Fix the error handling in __cpuidle_register_device to include
the missing list_del.  Move it to a label, which will simplify
the error handling when coupled states are added.
