SubjectRe: [PATCH] isdn divas: fix proc creation

I don't know where you found this. I have look even in older versions, but
the pointer divas_proc_entry is set by proc_create(). The patch to
divasproc.c is wrong, it exists from the beginning of the driver.
(2.6.25.4 doesn't contain the bug you describe).

> 2. if proc entry wasn't created, no reason to remove it on error path.

Agreed here. The reason for doing remove_divas_proc() anyway, was to
make sure all possible settings done in !create_divas_proc() are
reverted. But since nothing else is done here, it is okay to remove it.
