Hm, probably the whole driver shouldn't load then and > the error code from hp_wmi_input_setup() can be returned in > hp_wmi_init(void). > > Do you mind to incorporate above if you agree. Checking hp_wmi_input_setup() is already done in my previous patch. ( which is already merged in platform-driver-x86 tree. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mjg59/platform-drivers-x86.git;a=commitdiff;h=b035d5f9fcb6cd6bba44b764b17d885f4d960d37 ). Thus this patch only adds the return value checking for input_allocate_device() in hp_wmi_input_setup().
