Re: [RFC PATCH] mtd: lpddr: Fix bad logic in print_drs_error

["Gustavo A. R. Silva" <gustavo@embeddedor.com>]

Hi,

It seems that this fix should be tagged for -stable.

I can create a three-patch series for this (as Miquel suggested), starting
with the patch that fix the wrong condition, so it can be ported to
-stable, separately.

I'll include you Reported-by, Joe.

Thanks
