Does checkpatch complain about this, really?  This is a code change and
needs to be explained in the commit message at least.

This is ugly.  Do:

        brd = kzalloc(sizeof(struct board_t), GFP_KERNEL);
        if (!brd)
                return -ENOMEM;

        dgap_Board[dgap_NumBoards] = brd;

Except really that assignment should happen after the other allocations
which can fail.  Otherwise we end up with a freed pointer in
dgap_Board[dgap_NumBoards] on error.

                while ((w = dgap_getword(in))) {

Double negatives hurt your brain cells for no reason.  (This has been
proven by science).
