[PATCH 4/8] block/loop.c: handle add_disk() & blk_register_region() return value

From: Vishnu Pratap Singh
Date: Fri Nov 06 2015 - 07:31:36 EST


This patch handles blk_register_region() & add_disk() return value.
Earlier these function doesn't handle error cases, now it is added,
so the callers of this function should also handle it.

Verfied on X86 based ubuntu machine.
This patch depends on [PATCH 1/8] block/genhd.c: Add error handling
