Subject: [PATCH v2 -next 08/13] serial: 8250_early: Fix setup() error code
Date: Sun,  1 Mar 2015 11:05:53 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1425225958-17908-9-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1425225958-17908-1-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com>

If parsing failed to decode a valid uart addr, return -ENODEV instead
of success. Although setup_earlycon() will detect the failure anyway
(because the write() method has not been set), that behavior is not
obvious and should not be relied on.
