[patch 4/6] ACPI processor: extract return values using PTR_ERR

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

 



From: Thomas Sujith <sujith.thomas@xxxxxxxxx>

Need to extract errors using PTR_ERR macro and
process accordingly.thermal_cooling_device_register
returning NULL means that CONFIG_THERMAL=n and in that
case no need to create symbolic links.
