I fixed the patch to do so and handle another errors, too.

Subject: [PATCH] appletalk: handle errors during module_init

This patch makes aarp_proto_init() and atalk_register_sysctl()
return error value to catch ENOMEM errors from module init call.
Then it handles several errors in module_init and makes happen fail.

Also unnessesary SYSCTL ifdef in module_cleanup was removed.
