[PATCH v1] PCI/pwrctrl: Propagate dev_err_probe return value

[Anand Moon]

Ensure that the return value from dev_err_probe() is consistently assigned
back to return in all error paths within pci_pwrctrl_slot_probe()
function. This ensures the original error code are propagation for
debugging.

Extra {} are now unneeded.

Doing:
    		regulator_bulk_free(slot->num_supplies, slot->supplies);
    		return dev_err_probe(dev, ret, "Failed to enable slot regulators\n");

Would be more consistent.

How does this view fit to the commit ab81f2f79c683c94bac622aafafbe8232e547159
("PCI/pwrctrl: Fix double cleanup on devm_add_action_or_reset() failure")
from 2025-08-13?

Will an adjusted software understanding influence further collateral evolutions?

I will try to be more correct and improve myself.

I find the change description improvable.


I propose to take another source code transformation approach into account.
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.17.1/source/drivers/base/core.c#L5031-L5075

Example:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.17.1/source/drivers/pci/pwrctrl/slot.c#L30-L80

	ret = dev_err_probe(dev,
			    of_regulator_bulk_get_all(dev, dev_of_node(dev), &slot->supplies),
			    "Failed to get slot regulators\n");
	if (ret)
		return ret;

Markus

Again a pointless change.
