Taehee Yoo b54cf8734d bonding: check error value of register_netdevice() immediately
[ Upstream commit 544f287b84 ]

If register_netdevice() is failed, net_device should not be used
because variables are uninitialized or freed.
So, the routine should be stopped immediately.
But, bond_create() doesn't check return value of register_netdevice()
immediately. That will result in a panic because of using uninitialized
or freed memory.

Test commands:
    modprobe netdev-notifier-error-inject
    echo -22 > /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/netdev/\
actions/NETDEV_REGISTER/error
    modprobe bonding max_bonds=3

Splat looks like:

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
