Expanding the context:

	siu_reg = ioremap(res.start, resource_size(&res));
	if (siu_reg == NULL) {
		ret = -EINVAL;
		goto out;
	}

	mpc8xx_pic_host = irq_domain_add_linear(np, 64, &mpc8xx_pic_host_ops, NULL);
>  	if (mpc8xx_pic_host == NULL) {

out:
	of_node_put(np);
	return ret;
}

Proper error cleanup should also undo the ioremap() if
irq_domain_add_linear() fails.
