I see, I did not realize PTR_ERR() is actually long. I guess I can introduce a temp variable and use PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(), but there are a lot of places in the kernel that use %d and PTR_ERR(). I wonder why we can't define PTR_ERR() as (int)(long)ptr or something.

What compiler/version are you using for your builds?

Thanks.
