If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai [ Upstream commit b19b46346f483ae055fa027cb2d5c2ca91484b91 ] The recent commit 916c5e1413be ("hv/netvsc: fix handling of fallback to single queue mode") tried to fix the fallback behavior to a single queue mode, but it changed the function to return zero incorrectly, while the function should return an object pointer. Eventually this leads to a NULL dereference at the callers that expect non-NULL value. Fix it by returning the proper net_device object.
