driver-core: return EINVAL error instead of BUG_ON()
I triggerd the BUG_ON() in driver_register() when booting a domU Xen domain. Since there was no contextual information logged, I needed to attach kgdb to determine the culprit (the wmi-bmof driver in my case). The BUG_ON() was added in commit f48f3feb ("driver-core: do not register a driver with bus_type not registered"). Instead of running into a BUG_ON() we print an error message identifying the, likely faulty, driver but continue booting.
