Subject: [PATCH] pvrusb2: correctly handling failed thread run
Date: Thu,  4 Feb 2016 18:09:23 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1454627363-24300-1-git-send-email-wuninsu@gmail.com> (raw)

Since kthread_run returns -ENOMEM if failed,
it needs to be checked whether it is error, not whether it is null.
