[PATCH] driver core: show the error number when driver_sysfs_add() fails
From: Kefeng Wang
Date: Tue Jun 04 2019 - 00:12:48 EST
If driver_sysfs_add() fails, kernel shows following message,
really_probe: driver_sysfs_add(portman.0) failed
ppdev: probe of portman.0 failed with error 0
It's better to show the error number like other probe_failed path.
