Ick, good catch.
I hate those sysdev devices...
Hm, in sysdev_driver_register() we don't want to return any error there, as it doesn't make sense to.
Shaohua, sysdev devices should not stop the notificiation if a single add() function returns an error, right? All of the individual drivers want to be notified of the device.
Bleah...did I mention I don't like these things...
thanks,
