Sorry, I don't quite understand your question.

I think your original patch is OK, and I would appreciate if
you added a check for failure of ps3vram_cache_init() in
ps3vram_probe().  If you decide not to add that check I'll
create a patch for it later.

If this doesn't answer your question, could you please
rephrase it?
