You likely used another branch for preparing this patch. Nevertheless, thank you for the patch --- this kind of cleanups are always much appreciated. commit 806f8ffa8a0fa9a6f0481c5648c27aa51d10fdc6 Author: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Mar 7 15:39:32 2016 -0300 [media] media: i2c/adp1653: fix check of devm_gpiod_get() error code The devm_gpiod_get() function returns either a valid pointer to struct gpio_desc or ERR_PTR() error value, check for NULL is bogus.
