[PATCH] drm: fix error returns, sysfs error handling

From: Jeff Garzik
Date: Wed Oct 04 2006 - 10:09:57 EST



- callers of drm_sysfs_create() and drm_sysfs_device_add() looked for
errors using IS_ERR(), but the functions themselves only ever returned
NULL on error. Fixed.

- unwind from, and propagate sysfs errors
