If this is a can't happen case then either let it crash or WARN_ON it so
that it doesn't get ignored and lead to nastier failures elsewhere

You return with the mutex held in this case.

Same comment about hiding errors being bad

You export these functions but they don't appear to do any internal
locking in them, so how is the caller expected to use them ?

If there is a reason no locking is needed in this case document why and
the assumptions.

This is C not java.

ch_num = kobj->name[3] - '0';

Ditto (in fact why not just have a helper to range check and print the
error and share the string)

And again
