The automatic object lifetime model allows us to change the write() interface to have the same logic as the ioctl() path. Update the create/alloc functions to be in the following format, so the code flow will be the same: * Allocate objects * Initialize them * Call to the drivers, this is last step that is allowed to fail * Finalize object * Return response and allow to core code to handle abort/commit respectively.

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.
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.
