This change doesn't seem useful. The 2 lines right above the patch
context are:

                desc = pin_desc_get(pctldev, pins[i]);
                if (desc == NULL) {

... and the first thing pin_free() does it call pin_desc_get() again.
So, pin_free() is simply going to fail and print another error.

The rest of the patch looks good.
