[Patch 5/7] driver core: Change function call order indevice_bind_driver().

From: Cornelia Huck
Date: Mon Nov 27 2006 - 04:35:42 EST


From: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@xxxxxxxxxx>

Change function call order in device_bind_driver().

If we create symlinks (which might fail) before adding the device to the list
we don't have to clean up afterwards (which we didn't).
