What non-negative numbers can dvb_register_adapter and
devm_add_action_or_reset return, and what are their meanings? Why should
devm_dvb_register_adapter return the (non-negative) return value of
dvb_register_adapter?
(I really don't know, because I'm not familiar with the media/DVB subsystem)

*If* the non-negative return values don't matter, I'd simplify the code
to something like this:

	int res;

	res = dvb_register_adapter(adap, name, module, dev, adapter_nums);
	if (res < 0)
		return res;

	res = devm_add_action_or_reset(dev, unregister_adapter, adap);
	if (res < 0)
		return res;

	return 0;

(or even 'return devm_add_action_or_reset(...)' directly)

I think this function should also be added to
Documentation/driver-model/devres.rst (previously called devres.txt),
considering that most (or all?) devm_ functions are listed there.
