sysfs_remove_bin_file: no return value, dump_stack on error
Make sysfs_remove_bin_file() void. If it detects an error, printk the file name and call dump_stack(). sysfs_hash_and_remove() now returns an error code indicating its success or failure so that sysfs_remove_bin_file() can know success/failure. Convert the only driver that checked the return value of sysfs_remove_bin_file(). Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
