The if-statement should be correctly indented (it's inside another
if-body, so needs to be one more tab over) and there needs to be a space
before the else.

o.k., so it should look something like this:
if (fn) {
	code...
	} else if (pn) {


You should probably split your printks up so they don't exceed 80 chars too,
for example:

			printk(KERN_WARNING
			       "dev%d: Failed to create physical_node: %d\n",
			       status, pn);

Also 'status' is probably the wrong thing to print as the number in "dev%d".
If it worked, that should be unconditionally AE_OK, I think.  Can you not use
dev_warn() or similar instead or printk?

alright, I'll look at this today. I'm not the best at making printks in fact I'm more intimidated by them..(so with this in mind, I'm going to sit and make myself learn this, so I atleast have a better idea of doing these than I have now.)
