Subject: [PATCH] crypto: atmel-sha204a - fail on hwrng registration error in probe path
Date: Sun, 17 May 2026 18:27:40 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260517162740.1250-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)

Commit 13909a0c8897 ("crypto: atmel-sha204a - provide the otp content")
overwrote the hwrng registration return value when creating the sysfs
group, which allowed atmel_sha204a_probe() to succeed even if
devm_hwrng_register() failed.

Return immediately when devm_hwrng_register() fails, and report both
hwrng and sysfs registration errors with dev_err(). Adjust the sysfs
error log message for consistency.

Fixes: 13909a0c8897 ("crypto: atmel-sha204a - provide the otp content")
