Subject: [PATCH] drm/nouveau: fix an error code in nouveau_backlight_init()
Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2021 08:58:12 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <YHaEdBgqCFQRqg1B@mwanda> (raw)
If nouveau_get_backlight_name() fails then this should return -ENOMEM
but currently it returns success.
Fixes: db1a0ae21461 ("drm/nouveau/bl: Assign different names to interfaces")
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

This is from static analysis. In the original commit db1a0ae21461
("drm/nouveau/bl: Assign different names to interfaces") then returning
zero seemed to be a very deliberate choice. I do think it was wrong
though and -ENOMEM is the currect return.
