drivers/base/core: improve device_add() error handling, fix bugs
* silence several warnings by handling sysfs_create_link() failure

Hm, what about driver-core-check-return-code-of-sysfs_create_link.patch
(merged with ...-fix.patch) which has been in -mm for a while?
No idea, I didn't check there. If someone else has a better patch...
great! Let's merge it :)
