Subject: [PATCH] acpi: Return -ENOENT in acpi_table_parse() and fix wrong comment.
Date: Mon, 6 Jan 2014 16:47:59 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1388998079-28160-1-git-send-email-tangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
The comment about return value of acpi_table_parse() is incorrect.
This patch fix it.
Since all callers only check if the function succeeded or not, this
patch simplifies the semantics by returning -errno for all failure
cases. This will also simply the comment.
As suggested by Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com>, also change the stub
in linux/acpi.h to return -ENODEV.
