[34-longterm 059/260] oprofile, x86: fix init_sysfs error handling

From: Paul Gortmaker
Date: Sun Jan 02 2011 - 03:04:53 EST


From: Robert Richter <robert.richter@xxxxxxx>

commit 10f0412f57f2a76a90eff4376f59cbb0a39e4e18 upstream.

On failure init_sysfs() might not properly free resources. The error
code of the function is not checked. And, when reinitializing the exit
function might be called twice. This patch fixes all this.
