The encoder->name field can never be non-null in the error path, as that
can only be possible after a successful call to
drm_simple_encoder_init(). Drop the cleanup.

This is probably worth a Fixes tag, as accessing encoder->func if
drm_simple_encoder_init() has not completed might lead to a NULL
pointer dereference.


Apart from this, patch looks good

But in that case encoder->name would be NULL, so encoder->funcs won't be
dereferenced. And encoder->name can never be non-NULL here, as explained
in the commit message, so this is dead code. I don't think it requires a
Fixes: tag.
