It basically boils down to that you said it doesn't fix a bug, but shuts up a non-default compiler using custom warning flags. But there is a bug in that code, as mipi_dsi_dcs_read() may return an error value, which may just be ENOMEM, but if it did we would return the garbage. Not only should we fix the error handling here, but you also need to fix the error handling in drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c as despite many callees returning an error, it assumes that bd->ops->get_brightness() never returns an error... -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
