From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Oct 11 2018 - 11:37:37 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Zhouyang Jia <jiazhouyang09@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 44d4d51de9a3534a2b63d69efda02a10e66541e4 ]

When sysfs_create_group fails, the lack of error-handling code may
cause unexpected results.

This patch adds error-handling code after calling sysfs_create_group.
