Please do not initialize error condition with success; when adding
additional initialization it makes easy to miss assigning proper return
value (as you seem to have) and return success in case of failure.

root_device_register() returns ERR_PTR-encoded error codes, you should
do:

	if (IS_ERR(pseudo_primary)) {
		printk(KERN_WARNING "scsi_debug: root_device_register() error\n");
		ret = PTR_ERR(pseudo_primary);
		goto free_vm;
	}

Same goes for your other patch.

Thanks.
