Subject: [PATCH] filemap: Fix error propagation in do_read_cache_page()
Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2022 11:10:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220921091010.1309093-1-alexl@redhat.com> (raw)
When do_read_cache_folio() returns an error pointer the code
was dereferencing it rather than forwarding the error via
ERR_CAST().
Found during code review.
Fixes: 539a3322f208 ("filemap: Add read_cache_folio and read_mapping_folio")
Signed-off-by: Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
