[PATCH AUTOSEL 3.18 11/16] net: altera_tse: fix connect_local_phy error path

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

 



From: Atsushi Nemoto <atsushi.nemoto@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 17b42a20d7ca59377788c6a2409e77569570cc10 ]

The connect_local_phy should return NULL (not negative errno) on
error, since its caller expects it.
