Subject: [PATCH v6 12/15] staging: gpib: lpvo_usb: Return error value from gpib_register_driver()
Date: Tue, 31 Dec 2024 00:26:32 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241230185633.175690-13-niharchaithanya@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241230185633.175690-1-niharchaithanya@gmail.com>

The function gpib_register_driver() can fail and does not return an
error value if it fails.

Return the error value if gpib_register_driver() fails. Add pr_err()
statement indicating the fail and error value.
