Subject: [Patch 2/7] driver core fixes: sysfs_create_link() retval checks in
 core.c

From: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@...ibm.com>

Check for return value of sysfs_create_link() in device_add()
and device_rename().  Add helper functions device_add_class_symlinks() and
device_remove_class_symlinks() to make the code easier to read.
