Subject: [PATCH] driver core: handle sysfs_op failure while device_add
Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2007 22:11:51 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <874porvbm0.fsf@sw.ru> (raw)

depends on: "[PATCH] driver core: fix device_add error path"

 - rearrange error path sequence, in order to make it more correct.
   In fact if initial sequance was doA(); doB(); doC();
   we should undo it with folowing sequance undoC(); undoB(); undoA();
 - handle sysfs_ops failure

This patch kills "ignoring return value of 'sysfs_create_link'"
warning message.
