Subject: [PATCH] drivers/regulator: use PTR_ERR to get error code
Date: Sat, 21 Nov 2009 22:18:44 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0911212218210.28848@ask.diku.dk> (raw)

From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

IS_ERR returns only 1 or 0.  The callsite of setup_regulators expects a
negative integer in an error case.  Thus, PTR_ERR has to be used to extract
it.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression E,E1;
@@

*E = IS_ERR(...)
 ... when != E = E1
*return E;
// </smpl>
