Driver-core: Fix bogus 0 error return in device_add()
If device_add() is called with a device which does not have dev->p set up, then device_private_init() is called. If that succeeds, then the error variable is set to 0. Now if the dev_name(dev) check further down fails, then device_add() correctly terminates, but returns 0. That of course lets the driver progress. If later another driver uses this half set up device as parent then device_add() of the child device explodes and renders sysfs completely unusable. Set the error to -EINVAL if dev_name() check fails. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Cc: "Hans J.
