From b59589635ff01cc25270360709eeeb5c45c6abb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pan Bian Date: Sat, 3 Dec 2016 19:33:23 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] net: bridge: set error code on failure Function br_sysfs_addbr() does not set error code when the call kobject_create_and_add() returns a NULL pointer. It may be better to return "-ENOMEM" when kobject_create_and_add() fails.
