Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: lm80: fix a missing check of return value
Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2018 00:13:03 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181221061304.59684-1-kjlu@umn.edu> (raw)

If lm80_read_value() fails, it returns a negative number instead of the
correct read data. Therefore, we should avoid using the data if it
fails.

The fix checks if lm80_read_value() fails, and if so, returns with the
error number.
