[PATCH] [HID] hid-sony: regression probing a SIXAXIS controller - wrong return value

STALE6484d

From: Richard Nauber <hidden>
Date: 2008-12-30 22:15:34
Subsystem: hid core layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jiri Kosina, Benjamin Tissoires, Linus Torvalds

This patch fixes a regression introduced in bd28ce00. It occurs when
attaching a Sony SIXAXIS controller:

input: Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller as
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1:1.0/input/input9
sony 0003:054C:0268.0006: input,hiddev96,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Joystick
[Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller] on usb-0000:00:1d.0-1/input0
sony: probe of 0003:054C:0268.0006 failed with error 17

The reason for this nasty behavior is a wrong return value emitted by
sony_set_operational().

Carry on playing with your Christmas gifts,
Richard
