[PATCH] cpufreq: cpufreq_register_driver should return -ENODEV if init fails

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For a driver that does not set the CPUFREQ_STICKY flag, if all of the
->init() calls fail, cpufreq_register_driver() should return an error.
This will prevent the driver from loading.

Fixes: ce1bcfe94db8 ("cpufreq: check cpufreq_policy_list instead of scanning policies for all CPUs")
