Subject: [PATCH net-next V2] ibmvnic: Correct return code checking for ibmvnic_init during probe
Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2017 15:41:02 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <149807766247.32243.8342302161340985903.stgit@mudbug> (raw)
The update to ibmvnic_init to allow an EAGAIN return code broke
the calling of ibmvnic_init from ibmvnic_probe. The code now
will return from this point in the probe routine if anything
other than EAGAIN is returned. The check should be to see if rc
is non-zero and not equal to EAGAIN.
Without this fix, the vNIC driver can return 0 (success) from
its probe routine due to ibmvnic_init returning zero, but before
completing the probe process and registering with the netdev layer.
Fixes: 6a2fb0e99f9c (ibmvnic: driver initialization for kdump/kexec)
