------------------------------------------------------
Subject: mod_sysfs_setup() doesn't return errno when kobject_add_dir() failure occurs
From: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx>
mod_sysfs_setup() doesn't return an errno when kobject_add_dir() for module
"holders" directory fails. So caller of mod_sysfs_setup() will keep going
and get oops.
