From 0448d38c1e8cd64fb2fa88f44cbc7c3dcf75ed6c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2014 09:20:59 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] usb: gadget: f_hid: fix error handling in ghid_setup() There were a two issues here. 1) We returned PTR_ERR(NULL) which means success if class_create() failed. 2) If alloc_chrdev_region() failed then we should clean up before returning. Also kernel style is to have "error handling" as opposed to "success handling". In the original code checking for "if (!status) " is confusing and this bad style is what lead to bug #2.
