This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled platform/x86: dell-wmi-sysman: Cleanup create_attributes_level_sysfs_files() to the 5.11-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: platform-x86-dell-wmi-sysman-cleanup-create_attribut.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.11 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit bb2394f4db520c85cc40cbf14f51a5a7d9b9efcf Author: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Mar 21 12:59:01 2021 +0100 platform/x86: dell-wmi-sysman: Cleanup create_attributes_level_sysfs_files() [ Upstream commit 35471138a9f7193482a2019e39643f575f8098dc ] Cleanup create_attributes_level_sysfs_files(): 1. There is no need to call sysfs_remove_file() on error, sysman_init() will already call release_attributes_data() on failure which already does this. 2. There is no need for the pr_debug() calls sysfs_create_file() should never fail and if it does it will already complain about the problem itself.
