[PATCH] drm/arm/komeda: Add a condition check before removing sysfs attribute

[Liviu Dudau]

Hello,

Replying from my personal email as the corporate system seems to have blackholed your emails
while I was on holiday.

Can you tell me more why you think that if sysfs_create_group() fails we should not call
sysfs_remove_group()? After all, we don't know how far sysfs_create_group() has progressed before
it encountered an error, so we still need to do some cleanup.

Best regards,
Liviu
