From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2016 09:40:55 +0000 Subject: [patch] mfd: wm8400-core: signedness bug in wm8400_reg_read() Message-Id: <20160414094055.GC16891@mwanda> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: Lee Jones , Mark Brown Cc: patches@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, kernel-janitors@vger.kernel.org This is harmless because the function is not called, but we're trying to return negative error codes so the function needs to return an int instead of a u16.
