Hi,

A little problem here. :)

I got a compiler warning here:
  CC      drivers/acpi/hotplug/core.o
drivers/acpi/hotplug/core.c: In function ‘acpihp_register_slot’:
drivers/acpi/hotplug/core.c:199: warning: ignoring return value of 
‘sysfs_create_link’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result

Seems that we need to check the sysfs_create_link()'s return value here, and if 
it fails, 
shall we at least give a warning message here ?

Thanks. :)
