The return values of register_cpu_under_node() and unregister_cpu_under_node() are always ignored, so it would probably be best to convert these to be void functions. That doesn't mean you can simply ignore the result of the first sysfs_create_link(), though: the second should probably be suppressed if the first returns an error. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
