[Patch 2/7] driver core fixes: sysfs_create_link() retval checks incore.c

From: Cornelia Huck
Date: Mon Nov 27 2006 - 04:36:15 EST


From: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@xxxxxxxxxx>

Check for return value of sysfs_create_link() in device_add()
and device_rename(). Add helper functions device_add_class_symlinks() and
device_remove_class_symlinks() to make the code easier to read.
