After merging the tty tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) produced these warnings:

drivers/tty/tty_io.c: In function 'tty_init':
drivers/tty/tty_io.c:3309: warning: ignoring return value of 'device_create_file', declared with attribute warn_unused_result
drivers/tty/vt/vt.c: In function 'vty_init':
drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:2997: warning: ignoring return value of 'device_create_file', declared with attribute warn_unused_result

Introduced by commit fbc92a3455577ab17615cbcb91826399061bd789 ("tty: add
'active' sysfs attribute to tty0 and console device").

Oops, Kay, care to make up a patch to fix these warnings?

These warnings are now in Linus' tree ...

Yes, Kay just sent me a patch to fix this, which I will queue up after
.38-rc1 is out.

thanks,
