Also wrong, you removed the creation of the links in sysfs.
The assignment to nowarn was there to avoid another compiler warning,
as sysfs_create_link() is marked __must_check.
I also went back to this one and made the following changes.. let me know
if
it's wrong etc..

if it looks good, then I can resend it out.
Have you compile-tested this?
As sysfs_create_link() is marked __must_check, that will cause another
compiler
warning, but only if CONFIG_SYSFS=y.
Perhaps you can just mark the nowarn variable __unused?
o.k. this builds cleanly without a warning, but is it the right thing todo?
i.g. rather leave the warning message there and file a bug than just silence
the issue. Anyways here is what I have:

The `__attribute__((unused))' should be `__used'.
I'm confused now. how should I write that out?
