From: Chao Yu <yuchao0@xxxxxxxxxx> In register_bcache(), there are several cases we didn't set correct error info (return value and/or error message): - if kzalloc() fails, it needs to return ENOMEM and print "cannot allocate memory"; - if register_cache() fails, it's better to propagate its return value rather than using default EINVAL.
