Personally, I disagree with that.
All glue drivers should use the same way of checking dw_pcie_ep_init(),
depending on the kdoc of dw_pcie_ep_init().
If the kdoc for dw_pcie_ep_init() says returns 0 on success,
then I think that it is strictly more correct to do:
ret = dw_pcie_ep_init()
if (ret) {
<error handling>
}
And if a glue driver doesn't look like that, then I think we should change
them. (Same reasoning for dw_pcie_ep_init_registers().)
If you read code that looks like:
ret = dw_pcie_ep_init()
if (ret < 0) {
<error handling>
}
then you assume that is is a function with a kdoc that says it can return 0
or a positive value on success, e.g. a function that returns an index in an
array.
Kind regards,
Niklas
