From: Kangjie Lu <redacted> [ Upstream commit d134e486e831defd26130770181f01dfc6195f7d ] When netxen_rom_fast_read() fails, "bios" is left uninitialized and may contain random value, thus should not be used. The fix ensures that if netxen_rom_fast_read() fails, we return "-EIO". Signed-off-by: Kangjie Lu <redacted> Signed-off-by: David S.
