Subject: [PATCH 1/1] edac: fix improper return value
Date: Sun,  4 Dec 2016 14:07:18 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1480831638-5361-1-git-send-email-bianpan201604@163.com> (raw)

From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@163.com>

When the call to zalloc_cpumask_var() fails, returning "false" seems
improper. The real value of macro "false" is 0, and 0 means no error.
This patch fixes the bug, returning "-ENOMEM".
