Subject: [PATCH v1] driver:core: no need to invert the return value of the call_driver_probe()
Date: Sun, 7 Jul 2024 04:27:38 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240707112738.3380-1-sensor1010@163.com> (raw)
If drv->probe() or drv->bus->probe() returns EPROBE_DEFER,
then there is no need to invert the sign. Similarly,
if it returns -EPROBE_DEFER, no sign inversion is needed either
In the probe function (either bus->probe() or drv->probe()),
there is no return value of EPROBE_DEFER.
