[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 35/52] net: pcs: xpcs: Return EINVAL in the internal methods

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>

Also in: lkml, stable
Subsystem: ethernet phy library, networking drivers, synopsys designware ethernet xpcs driver, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, Heiner Kallweit, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Serge Semin <redacted>

[ Upstream commit f5151005d379d9ce42e327fd3b2d2aaef61cda81 ]

In particular the xpcs_soft_reset() and xpcs_do_config() functions
currently return -1 if invalid auto-negotiation mode is specified. That
value might be then passed to the generic kernel subsystems which require
a standard kernel errno value. Even though the erroneous conditions are
very specific (memory corruption or buggy driver implementation) using a
hard-coded -1 literal doesn't seem correct anyway especially when it comes
to passing it higher to the network subsystem or printing to the system
log.  Convert the hard-coded error values to -EINVAL then.
