No, that is not right.

If you look closely,

device_attach() returns
1: success
0: not attached
<0: fail.

so if you return ret directly, you have false warning from

drivers/edac/i82875p_edac.c:            err = pci_bus_add_device(dev);
drivers/edac/i82875p_edac.c:                            "%s():
pci_bus_add_device() Failed\n",
drivers/platform/x86/asus-wmi.c:                                if
(pci_bus_add_device(dev))
drivers/platform/x86/eeepc-laptop.c:                            if
(pci_bus_add_device(dev))

We already have
    WARN_ON(retval < 0);

so please just remove all return checking from calling path.
compiler already drop them...

should be dropped.

oh, no, no one have that report. instead if should have trace printed out.
