Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 02/19] serial: max310x: unregister uart driver in case of failure and abort
Date: Mon, 24 May 2021 10:50:49 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210524145106.2499571-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210524145106.2499571-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Atul Gopinathan <atulgopinathan@gmail.com>
[ Upstream commit 3890e3dea315f1a257d1b940a2a4e2fa16a7b095 ]
The macro "spi_register_driver" invokes the function
"__spi_register_driver()" which has a return type of int and can fail,
returning a negative value in such a case. This is currently ignored and
the init() function yields success even if the spi driver failed to
register.
Fix this by collecting the return value of "__spi_register_driver()" and
also unregister the uart driver in case of failure.
