[PATCH] HID: intel-thc-hid: Intel-quickspi: Fix some error codes

[Dan Carpenter]

If we have a partial read that is supposed to be treated as failure but
in this code we forgot to set the error code.  Return -EINVAL.

Fixes: 9d8d51735a3a ("HID: intel-thc-hid: intel-quickspi: Add HIDSPI protocol implementation")

I think this would be throwing away other possible different return values from thc_tic_pio_read?
You'd be losing the -EINTR,-EBUSY, -ETIMEDOUT conditions that might be useful to the upper layers.

Should that block be split into two separate error conditions?

It doesn't throw away any error codes.  Writing "return ret ?: -EINVAL;"
is a short hand for "return ret ? ret : -EINVAL;".

Yeah, you're right - read it to fast. Sorry!

Good capture! If ret > 0, but read length != expected length, the error also needs to be thrown.
Thanks for the patch!

Applied to hid.git#for-7.1/upstream-fixes, thanks Dan.
