The patch ASoC: rsnd: return -EIO if rsnd_dmaen_request_channel() failed has been applied to the asoc tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From c409c2a963475f0288ba3bb47a10f04f6441ffb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2017 01:07:27 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: rsnd: return -EIO if rsnd_dmaen_request_channel() failed PTR_ERR(NULL) is success. Normally when a function returns both NULL and error pointers, it means that NULL is not a error. But, rsnd_dmaen_request_channel() returns NULL if requested resource was failed. Let's return -EIO if rsnd_dmaen_request_channel() was failed on rsnd_dmaen_nolock_start().
