[PATCH 5.12 213/242] coresight: Propagate symlink failure

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Jul 15 2021 - 15:19:36 EST


From: Jeremy Linton <jeremy.linton@xxxxxxx>

commit 51dd19a7e9f8fbbb7cd92b8a357091911eae7f78 upstream.

If the symlink is unable to be created, the driver goes
ahead and continues device creation. Instead lets propagate
the failure, and fail the probe.
