In edac_device_register_sysfs_main_kobj(), when dev_root is NULL, kobject_init_and_add() is not called.
if (err) { // err = -ENODEV edac_dbg(1, "Failed to register '.../edac/%s'\n", edac_dev->name); goto err_kobj_reg; // This calls kobj_put() }
This will cause a runtime warning in kobject_put() if the above happens. Warning: "kobject: '%s' (%p): is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being called."
Fix the error handling to avoid the above possible situation.

What cb4a0bec0bb9 did looks wrong. That if (err) check should be inside the if (dev_root).
IOW, that function's error checking needs balancing. Something like this below.

In this diff, put_device(dev_root) is not called on the success path. I checked couple of other callers of bus_get_dev_root() and they call put_device(dev_root) after using dev_root. I think we need to have put_device() on the success path as well.
