commit 9be080edcca330be4af06b19916c35227891e8bc upstream.
When using callback there was a flow of
ret = -EINVAL
if (callback) {
offset = callback();
goto out;
}
...
offset = some other value in case of no callback;
ret = offset;
out:
return ret;
which causes the snd_info_entry_llseek() to return -EINVAL when there is
callback handler. Fix this by setting "ret" directly to callback return
value before jumping to "out".
