driver core: Fix bus_type.match() error handling in __driver_attach()
stable inclusion from stable-v4.19.270 commit 728c23ee14f01858632625556e51c2d1db4a414e category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6DPF8 CVE: NA -------------------------------- commit 27c0d217 upstream. 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.
