This serie is part of the effort to axe the wrappers in
include/linux/pci-dma-compat.h

While looking at it, I spotted:
   - a resource leak in an error handling path (patch 1)
   - an error code that could be propagated. (patch 2)
     This patch could be ignored. It's only goal is to be more consistent
     with other drivers.

These 2 paches are not related to the 'pci-dma-compat.h' stuff, which can
be found in patch 3.

Christophe JAILLET (3):
   gve: Fix an error handling path in 'gve_probe()'
   gve: Propagate error codes to caller
   gve: Simplify code and axe the use of a deprecated API



Thanks for these patches.

Can split this into 2 patch series;

Sure.

one for net (with the first 2
patches) and one for net-next (with the cleanup one)?

I've never worked with net and net-next directly.
If just adding net and net-next after [PATCH] in the subject of the mail, yes, I can do it if it helps.


BTW, I gave a look at https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/
The patch 1/3 is marked as failed because "1 blamed authors not CCed: lrizzo@xxxxxxxxxx; 1 maintainers not CCed: lrizzo@xxxxxxxxxx"

This author/blame was not spotted by get_maintainer.pl. Is it something I should worry about?


Also the label in the first patch should probably read
'abort_with_gve_init' instead of 'abort_with_vge_init'.

Good catch. Sorry about that.
