If pci_register_driver() failed, resources allocated in
ddb_class_create() are leaked. The patch fixes it.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

 Difference to before: the return value of pci_register_driver is not passed through.
 Is this a problem? I'm just an interested application developer, not a driver developer.

Lars.

This is not right. It should be returning a proper error code.

Could you please patch ddb_class_create() in order to make it to
return the retuned value from IS_ERR() as the error code, and return
it back to the init code?

Ok, I noticed that other parts of the driver are also returning wrong
error codes, but let's fix at least module_init_ddbridge() while you're
looking into this.

Again, the correct here would be to store the error on a temp register
and return it, instead of returning -1.

On userspace, ioctl() always return -1 on errors. The error code at "errno"
is wrong, though. Instead of "1", it should be the ones described at the
API spec[1].

Please discard this email. I already commented this on a previous email.
This one was a previous draft.

Thanks,

If pci_register_driver() failed, resources allocated in
ddb_class_create() are leaked. The patch fixes it
as well as it replaces -1 with correct error code
in ddb_class_create().
