[PATCH] module: return error when mod_sysfs_init() failed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



load_module() returns zero when mod_sysfs_init() fails,
then the module loading will succeed accidentally.

This patch makes load_module() return error correctly in that case.
