[PATCH 2/2]: HVCS char driver janitoring: rm compiler warnings

From: Linas Vepstas
Date: Thu Nov 16 2006 - 16:15:49 EST



Please apply.

--linas

This patch removes an pair of irritating compiler warnings:

drivers/char/hvcs.c:1605: warning: ignoring return value of
sysfs_create_group declared with attribute warn_unused_result
drivers/char/hvcs.c:1639: warning: ignoring return value of
driver_create_file declared with attribute warn_unused_result

This is done primarily by restructuring the module_init error
handling code.
