Re: [PATCH] net: cxgb3: add error handling for some functions

From: Zhouyang Jia <redacted>

When sysfs_create_group or alloc_skb fails, the lack of error-handling
code may cause unexpected results.

This patch adds error-handling code after the functions.

Signed-off-by: Zhouyang Jia <redacted>

The ->nofail_skb handling is perfectly fine.

It is a backup SKB, meant to handle alloc_skb() failures for the
primary 'skb' allocation the _next_ time this function is called.

Even if the ->nofail_skb allocation fails, the primary operation
done by init_tp_parity() has succeeeded and we should return
success.

All of the code in this function is perfectly prepared to handle
the case where ->nofail_skb is NULL.
