Subject: [PATCH 2/7] x86, microcode: Correct sysdev_add error path
Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2011 16:28:58 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1295882943-11184-3-git-send-email-bp@amd64.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1295882943-11184-1-git-send-email-bp@amd64.org>
From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com>
When we encounter an error while initting the microcode driver on a CPU,
we must undo the previously added sysfs group.
