The return value of hga_card_detect() is not properly handled causing the probe to succeed even though hga_card_detect() failed. Since probe succeeds, hgafb_open() can be called which will end up operating on an unmapped hga_vram. This results in an out-of-bounds access as reported by kernel test robot [1]. To fix this, correctly detect failure of hga_card_detect() by checking for a non-zero error code.
