ug, OK, the complex expression in that for-loop is to blame.

For maintinability we should aim for code which is as simple and as
straightfroward as possible and which adheres to oft-used and
well-understood kernel idioms.

For example, this?

static int __init alix_led_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
	int i;
	int ret;

	for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(alix_leds); i++) {
		ret = led_classdev_register(&pdev->dev, &alix_leds[i].cdev);
		if (ret < 0)
			goto fail;
	}
	return 0;

fail:
	while (--i >= 0)
		led_classdev_unregister(&alix_leds[i].cdev);
	return ret;
}

(note there's no longer a need for a fake initalisation of `ret')

That's what you get for copying stuff :(
