Handle errors thrown in disk_sysfs_symlinks(), and propagate back

The callers and associated functions don't do a real good job
of handling kobject errors anyway (add_partition, register_disk,
rescan_partitions), so this should do until something better comes
along.

I'm not sure that failure to create these symlinks should be fatal,
to be honest...

Fair enough, though FWIW the failure is almost always -EFAULT or -ENOMEM, i.e. -ESYSTEMINTROUBLE...
