Subject: [02/43] block, blk-sysfs: Fix an err return path in blk_register_queue()

2.6.33-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Liu Yuan <tailai.ly@...bao.com>

commit ed5302d3c25006a9edc7a7fbea97a30483f89ef7 upstream.

We do not call blk_trace_remove_sysfs() in err return path
if kobject_add() fails. This path fixes it.
