Jiri Pirko noted that it's pointless to pass it in the error path, and that the value that would be printed in the second error path would be the value of act_len from the first call to usb_bulk_msg.[1] With this in mind, let's just not pass act_len to the usb_bulk_msg error paths. 1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y9pY61y1nwTuzMOa@nanopsycho/ Fixes: d40261236e8e ("net/usb: Add Samsung Kalmia driver for Samsung GT-B3730") Reported-and-tested-by: syzbot+cd80c5ef5121bfe85b55@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Miko Larsson <mikoxyzzz@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Alexander Duyck <alexanderduyck@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
