Isaac J. Manjarres 27c0d21734 driver core: Fix bus_type.match() error handling in __driver_attach()
When a driver registers with a bus, it will attempt to match with every
device on the bus through the __driver_attach() function. Currently, if
the bus_type.match() function encounters an error that is not
-EPROBE_DEFER, __driver_attach() will return a negative error code, which
causes the driver registration logic to stop trying to match with the
remaining devices on the bus.

This behavior is not correct; a failure while matching a driver to a
device does not mean that the driver won't be able to match and bind
with other devices on the bus. Update the logic in __driver_attach()
to reflect this.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
