Since hid_connect() only cares about hiddev_connect() succeeding or failing, there is no need for this function to return an int and it can return a bool instead. Suggested-by: Jiri Kosina <jikos@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Luis de Bethencourt <luisbg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi, The suggestion to change the return type of the function was made in: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/5/330 In relation to hiddev_connect() returning the wrong errno code.
