From ca2b94ba12f3c36fd3d6ed9d38b3798d4dad0d8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hannes Reinecke Date: Wed, 18 May 2005 10:42:23 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] driver core: fix error handling in bus_add_device The error handling in bus_add_device() and device_attach() is simply non-existing. This patch propagates any error from device_attach to the upper layers to allow for a proper recovery.
