Subject: [PATCH 1/5] sky2: handle network device allocation failure
Date: Fri, 26 Jan 2007 11:38:36 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070126194004.028526000@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070126193835.658962000@linux-foundation.org
[-- Attachment #1: sky2-err-allocfail.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1569 bytes --]
If alloc_etherdev() failed, then sky2_init_netdev will return NULL,
and sky2_probe would end up returning 0 instead of -ENOMEM.
