[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 016/273] iio-light: Use a signed return type for ltr501_match_samp_freq()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.2.8-ckt5 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c08ae18560aaed50fed306a2e11f36ce70130f65 upstream.

The return type "unsigned int" was used by the ltr501_match_samp_freq()
function despite of the aspect that it will eventually return a negative
error code.
Improve this implementation detail by deletion of the type modifier then.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
