The patch spi: imx: Check for allocation failure earlier has been applied to the spi tree at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 2c147776dc8b3d67ec42605dcba4deb98f2d0536 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2017 13:50:55 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] spi: imx: Check for allocation failure earlier In case of spi_alloc_master() failure it is better to return the error immediately, so move the error check right after the allocation.
