If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Zhouyang Jia [ Upstream commit 44d4d51de9a3534a2b63d69efda02a10e66541e4 ] When sysfs_create_group fails, the lack of error-handling code may cause unexpected results. This patch adds error-handling code after calling sysfs_create_group.
