3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Jakub Kicinski <[email protected]> commit f01fc1a82c2ee68726b400fadb156bd623b5f2f1 upstream. ixgbe_notify_dca cannot be called before driver registration because it expects driver's klist_devices to be allocated and initialized. While on it make sure debugfs files are removed when registration fails.
