Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: handle failures in sysfs_make_dirent
Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2006 16:49:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11364221712096@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <11364221713236@kroah.com>

[PATCH] sysfs: handle failures in sysfs_make_dirent

I noticed that if sysfs_make_dirent fails to allocate the sd, then a
null will be passed to sysfs_put.
