Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/boot: Simplify serial console control flow
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 12:41:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260914104136.74312-3-blum@kernel.org> (raw)

In serial_get_stdout_devp() and serial_console_init(), remove the goto
statements and return NULL and rc directly.

In serial_console_init(), handle errors early to reduce indentation.
