From f70fa6296c2ec8f541f0a9b406ccc2d9d127d639 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2006 17:03:24 -0400 Subject: Driver core: Don't ignore error returns from probing This patch (as797) fixes device_add() in the driver core. It needs to pay attention when the driver for a new device reports an error. At the same time, since bus_remove_device() undoes the effects of both bus_add_device() and bus_attach_device(), it needs to check whether the bus_attach_device step failed.
