Subject: [PATCH] misc: hmc6352: fix wrong return value checking for i2c_master_recv
Date: Wed, 09 Mar 2011 16:41:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1299660116.8255.1.camel@mola> (raw)

i2c_master_recv() returns negative errno, or else the number of bytes read.
Thus i2c_master_recv(client, i2c_data, 2) returns 2 instead of 1 in success case.
