[PATCH v1] staging: r8188eu: an incorrect return value made the function always return fail

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

 



Since _SUCCESS (1) and _FAIL (0) are used to indicate the status of the
functions. The previous commit 8ae7bf782eacad803f752c83a183393b0a67127b
fixed and prevented dereferencing a NULL pointer through checking the
return pointer. The NULL pointer check work properly but the return
values (-ENOMEM on fail and 0 on success). This work fixed the return
values to make sure the caller function will return the correct status.
