I commented on a previous attempt to check the return value from
dma_set_mask(). See [1]. See also commit f92a4b50f0bd that adds
some detail about the error handling in vmbus_device_register(). It's
all rather messy. I have not personally worked through the details, so
I'm not sure of what the right cleanup is. But I don't think it is
sufficient to just do the kfree() as your patch proposes. Or if I'm wrong,
and that *is* sufficient, please provides details on the reasoning
why, and let's make sure to record that for future reference! :-)
