Re: [PATCH] sound: Fix warnings relating to ignored return value in snd_card_register

[Hannes Eder]

Do not ignore the return of 'device_create_file' in
'snd_card_register' and thereby fixing the following warnings:

sound/core/init.c: In function 'snd_card_register':
sound/core/init.c:640: warning: ignoring return value of
'device_create_file', declared with attribute warn_unused_result
sound/core/init.c:641: warning: ignoring return value of
'device_create_file', declared with attribute warn_unused_result

I did not fix:

"WARNING: line over 80 characters" as they a hardly longer than 80
characters and there are lines longer than this in the same file.

"ERROR: do not use assignment in if condition" as this pattern seems
to be quite common.

Comments? Should I fix them?
