Subject: [patch] bna: fix error handling of bnad_get_flash_partition_by_offset()
Date: Thu, 09 Feb 2012 10:49:34 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120209104934.GC5540@elgon.mountain> (raw)

The current error handling doesn't work because we flash_part is a u32
so the checks for negative error codes don't work.  I considered making
things signed but I don't know the hardware enough to say if that's a
problem.  Really, we don't use the error codes so just returning zero
for all problems is fine.
