kobject_init_internal() simply is noisy when an error happen (in this
case a memory allocation error was injected)

It seems it is intended.

commit 282029c005e65ffdce3aa9f8220f88a8bbbc4dae
Author: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

    kobject: provide more diagnostic info for kobject_add_internal()
failures
    
    1/ convert open-coded KERN_ERR+dump_stack() to WARN(), so that
automated
       tools pick up this warning.
    
    2/ include the 'child' and 'parent' kobject names.  This
information was
       useful for tracking down the case where scsi invoked
device_del() on a
       parent object and subsequently invoked device_add() on a
child.  Now the
       warning looks like:
    
         kobject_add_internal failed for target8:0:16 (error: -2
parent: end_device-8:0:24)
         Pid: 2942, comm: scsi_scan_8 Not tainted 3.3.0-rc7-isci+ #2
         Call Trace:
