[PATCH] uwb: properly check kthread_run return value

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

 



uwbd_start() calls kthread_run() and checks that the return value is
not NULL. But the return value is not NULL in case kthread_run() fails,
it takes the form of ERR_PTR(-EINTR).

Use IS_ERR() instead.
