4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit c9c63915519b1def7043b184680f33c24cd49d7b ] If lm80_read_value() fails, it returns a negative number instead of the correct read data. Therefore, we should avoid using the data if it fails. The fix checks if lm80_read_value() fails, and if so, returns with the error number.
