Subject: [PATCH] fs/partitions/check: add sysfs error handling
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=eee44cca665aa1a5663e6a00c2bdfc275739dac5;p=linux-beck.git

[PATCH] fs/partitions/check: add sysfs error handling

Handle errors thrown in disk_sysfs_symlinks(), and propagate back to
caller.

The callers and associated functions don't do a real good job of handling
kobject errors anyway (add_partition, register_disk, rescan_partitions), so
this should do until something better comes along.
