[PATCH] elx: efct: fix pointer error checking in debugfs init

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

 



debugfs_create_xxx routines, which return pointers, are being checked
for error by looking for NULL values. The routines may return
pointer-munged -Exxx codes, so they should be using IS_ERR() to adapt.

There are two cases:
- the first case is on initial directory creation, which actually
  doesn't need to be checked. So remove the check.
- creation of the sessions subdirectory. Modify this creation to
  create under the initial directory created, and fix failure check.
