The IS_ERR_VALUE() API is rather awkward already, and your use seems specific to the cpu_muram_alloc() function. How about something like int cpm_muram_error(unsigned long addr) { if (addr >= (unsigned long)-MAX_ERRNO) return addr; else return 0; } and then use that to check the value returned by the allocation that is still an 'unsigned long', before assigning it to a 'u32'.
