Subject: [ 93/95] drivers: uio: Fix UIO device registration failure
Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2013 11:33:20 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130625182204.176739943@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130625182153.605455184@linuxfoundation.org>
3.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Damian Hobson-Garcia <dhobsong@igel.co.jp>
commit 5ed0505c713805f89473cdc0bbfb5110dfd840cb upstream.
Until recently uio_get_minor() returned 0 for success and
a negative value on failure. This became non-negative for suceess and
negative for failure. Restore the original return value spec so that we can
successfully initialize UIO devices with a non-zero minor device
number.
