In probe the driver queued delayed work for cable detection and returned the result of queue_delayed_work() call. However the return value of queue_delayed_work() does not indicate an error and in normal condition it returns true which means successful work queue. This effectively resulted in probe failure: [ 2.088204] max14577-muic: probe of max77836-muic failed with error 1 Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <k.kozlowski@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fixes: 962e56bfcf0b ("extcon: max14577: Add extcon-max14577 driver...") --- drivers/extcon/extcon-max14577.c | 7 +------ 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/extcon/extcon-max14577.c b/drivers/extcon/extcon-max14577.c index 3846941801b8..1fef08dc7c0f 100644 --- a/drivers/extcon/extcon-max14577.c +++ b/drivers/extcon/extcon-max14577.c @@ -710,13 +710,8 @@ static int max14577_muic_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) * driver should notify cable state to upper layer. */ INIT_DELAYED_WORK(&info->wq_detcable, max14577_muic_detect_cable_wq); - ret = queue_delayed_work(system_power_efficient_wq, &info->wq_detcable, + queue_delayed_work(system_power_efficient_wq, &info->wq_detcable, delay_jiffies); - if (ret < 0) { - dev_err(&pdev->dev, - "failed to schedule delayed work for cable detect\n"); - goto err_extcon; - } return ret; -- 1.8.3.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
