From: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@xxxxxxxxx> Convert a nonnegative error return code to a negative one, as returned elsewhere in the function. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> ( if@p1 (\(ret < 0\|ret != 0\)) { ... return ret; } | ret@p1 = 0 ) ... when != ret = e1 when != &ret *if(...) { ... when != ret = e2 when forall return ret; } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/media/rc/redrat3.c | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/media/rc/redrat3.c b/drivers/media/rc/redrat3.c index 2878b0e..49731b1 100644 --- a/drivers/media/rc/redrat3.c +++ b/drivers/media/rc/redrat3.c @@ -1217,9 +1217,10 @@ static int __devinit redrat3_dev_probe(struct usb_interface *intf, rr3->carrier = 38000; rr3->rc = redrat3_init_rc_dev(rr3); - if (!rr3->rc) + if (!rr3->rc) { + retval = -ENOMEM; goto error; - + } setup_timer(&rr3->rx_timeout, redrat3_rx_timeout, (unsigned long)rr3); /* we can register the device now, as it is ready */ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
