4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Lukas Wunner <lukas@xxxxxxxxx> commit 3c67d839b30c7d6d6ab5c6fddac0f58ec8095d50 upstream. In its original version, drm_framebuffer_init() returned a negative int if drm_mode_object_get() failed (f453ba046074, "DRM: add mode setting support"). This was accidentally disabled by commit 4b096ac10da0 ("drm: revamp locking around fb creation/destruction"). Thus, drm_framebuffer_init() pretends success if drm_mode_object_get() failed. Reinstate the original behaviour. Also fix erroneous kernel-doc of drm_mode_object_get().
