[PATCH 5.10 056/575] cavium: Fix return values of the probe function

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-11-15 18:57:20
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: arm/cavium thunder network driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Sunil Goutham, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Zheyu Ma <redacted>

[ Upstream commit c69b2f46876825c726bd8a97c7fa852d8932bc32 ]

During the process of driver probing, the probe function should return < 0
for failure, otherwise, the kernel will treat value > 0 as success.
