Hi Greg,
following are hacked-up versions of the -mm patches
more-driver-core-fixes-for-mm.patch yet-further-driver-core-fixes-for-mm.patch return-code-checking-for-make_class_name.patch
rebased against your kernel tree (as of yesterday).
Except for the rebase, they are basically unchanged from the version in -mm (some things like bus_attach_device() no longer being tristate, and class_device_rename() being gone). Patches 11 and 12 are new.
[01/12] driver core fixes: make_class_name() retval check [02/12] driver core fixes: device_register() retval check in platform.c [03/12] driver core fixes: fixup platform_device_register_simple() [04/12] driver core fixes: retval check in class_register() [05/12] driver core fixes: sysfs_create_link() retval check in class.c [06/12] driver core fixes: bus_add_attrs() retval check [07/12] driver core fixes: bus_add_device() cleanup on error [08/12] driver core fixes: device_add() cleanup on error [09/12] driver core fixes: bus_attach_device() retval check [10/12] driver core fixes: sysfs_create_link() retval check in core.c [11/12] driver core fixes: device_create_file() retval check in dmapool.c [12/12] driver core fixes: sysfs_create_group() retval in topology.c
Most of the patches but 1, 8, 9 and 10 should be pretty independent of each other. I'm not sure about patch 12, since the calling function does not check the return code of topology_add_dev() (but what should it do if it fails?).
