Yes, exactly that's the idea.
The only alternatives I can see would be to either move allocating the
file and so completing the dma_buf initialization last again or just
ignore errors from sysfs.

No, this should be dropped as far as I can see. The sysfs cleanup code
looks like it can handle not initialized kobj pointers.
Yeah there is also the null check in dma_buf_stats_teardown() that would prevent it from running, but I understood the comment to be referring to the release() dma_buf_ops call into the exporter which comes right after the teardown call. That looks like it's preventing the fput task work calling back into the exporter after the exporter already got an error from dma_buf_export(). Otherwise the exporter sees a release() for a buffer that it doesn't know about / thinks shouldn't exist. So I could imagine an exporter trying to double free: once for the failed dma_buf_export() call, and again when the release() op is called later.
