[PATCH 1/2] staging: most: return error value

[Sudip Mukherjee]

On error we were returning retval, but retval is not having the error
value. We will get the error value using PTR_ERR.

[PATCH 2/2] staging: most: avoid assignment in if

[Sudip Mukherjee]

checkpatch is giving a warning about an assignment in the if condition.
The assignment was there as the valid mbo pointer was used after we have
woken up from wait_event_interruptible(). Now even though we donot
assign the pointer to mbo but we will still be able to get the valid
pointer for later use.

Sudip,

please take a look on "[PATCH 23/28] staging: most: fix race conditions".
This already gets read of " warning about an assignment in the if condition".

Andrey
