[PATCH] loop.c doesn't fail init gracefully
From: BlaisorBlade <blaisorblade_spam@yahoo.it> loop_init doesn't fail gracefully for two reasons: 1) If initialization of loop driver fails, we have an call to devfs_add("loop") without any devfs_remove; I add that. 2) On lwn.net 2.6 kernel docs, Jonathan Corbet says: "If you are calling add_disk() in your driver initialization routine, you should not fail the initialization process after the first call." So I make loop.c conform to this request by moving add_disk after all memory allocations.
