Yes, maybe an example makes it more clear what to do here. Currently we 
print and error and return when something with the sysfs files goes wrong:

if (ret) {
     DRM_ERROR("Failed to create device file mem_info_vram_total\n");
     return ret;
}

But what we should do instead is just to print an error and continue and 
in the end return success status:

if (ret)
     DRM_ERROR("Failed to create device file mem_info_vram_total 
(%d)\n", r);

...
return 0;

Regards,
Christian.
