[PATCH V3] staging: sbe-2t3e3: use -ve error return codes in dc_init_descriptor_list

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

 



the dc_init_descriptor_list actually returns a +ve error return codes,
which is abnormal as other functions in kernel return -ve error codes on
failure. so replace the return codes of this function with -ve values
to make the consistency with the other functions in kernel.

Also make the dc_init_descriptor_list static as its never called
anywhere except in this file and move the function prototype from the
headerfile into the c file as its referred only in this c file.

 V3: Address Dan's comments about the u32 return type (should be int as we are 
	returning now a -ve value),
     Make the function static as its never called anywhere out of this c file
 V2: subject is properly fixed
