mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.16-rc1 commit fe7d064fa3faec5d8157029fb8720b4fddc9e1e8 category: bugfix bugzilla: 188733
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i...
----------------------------------------
Commit 83cbce957446 ("block: add error handling for device_add_disk / add_disk") added error handling to device_add_disk(), however the goto label for the kobject_create_and_add() failure did not set the return value correctly, and so we can end up in a situation where kobject_create_and_add() fails but we report success.
