     As you know, the return value of device driver's attach function is void.
   I've thought that we should change it to int for many years. I believe I'm
   not the only person.

Sounds plausible to me.  Can you draft an example of a patch to a
driver that would usefully use this?  Something to demonstrate how
many untested code paths we can eliminate by moving conditional logic
about `device failed to attach' to autoconf instead of copying it in
drivers.
