Subject: [PATCH] rtc: stmp3xxx: check for failure
Date: Mon, 11 Apr 2016 22:03:55 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1460392435-23803-1-git-send-email-sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com> (raw)
stmp3xxx_wdt_register() can fail as platform_device_alloc() or
platform_device_add() can fail. Lets check for the return value from
both platform_device_alloc() and platform_device_add() and return the
error value accordingly which is now propagated from probe.
