Subject: [PATCH] cobalt: adding a check to the driver This patch addresses an issue in cobalt-flash.c where the return value of the mtd_device_register function, was not being checked. This omission could lead to unhandled errors if the registration fails. The patch adds error handling by checking the return value and logging an error message if registration fails. It ensures that the function returns the appropriate error code, improving error detection and the robustness of the code. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
