4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ursula Braun <ubraun@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 9111e7880ccf419548c7b0887df020b08eadb075 ] When setting up the device from within the layer discipline's probe routine, creating the layer-specific sysfs attributes can fail. Report this error back to the caller, and handle it by releasing the layer discipline.
