[PATCH 1/1 v2] net: bnx2x: fix improper return value

From: Pan Bian <hidden>
Date: 2016-12-04 10:47:01
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: broadcom bnx2x 10 gigabit ethernet driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Sudarsana Kalluru, Manish Chopra, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Pan Bian <redacted>

Macro BNX2X_ALLOC_AND_SET(arr, lbl, func) calls kmalloc() to allocate
memory, and jumps to label "lbl" if the allocation fails. Label "lbl"
first cleans memory and then returns variable rc. Before calling the
macro, the value of variable rc is 0. Because 0 means no error, the
callers of bnx2x_init_firmware() may be misled. This patch fixes the bug,
assigning "-ENOMEM" to rc before calling macro NX2X_ALLOC_AND_SET().
