[PATCH] [PATCH v2] fsi: fix bogus error returns from cfam_read and cfam_write

From: Jeremy Kerr
Date: Thu Nov 28 2019 - 22:25:38 EST


Based on a static analysis report and original patch from Colin Ian King
<colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>.

Currently, we may drop error values from cfam_read and cfam_write. This
change returns the actual error on failure, but a partial read/write will
take precedence.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
Fixes: d1dcd6782576 ("fsi: Add cfam char devices")
Reported-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@xxxxxxxxxx>

Colin: thanks for the report and patch. I think this is a more complete
fix, as we want to preseve any partial read/write status if a failure
happens mid-way through an operation. Let me know if you (or the
coverity analysis) have any feedback.
