The device ready and the error are two different cases.

IMHO, it is not clear though I think I've mostly understood what you meant reading the actual source code. > Signed-off-by: beanhuo > --- > drivers/mtd/spi-nor/spi-nor.c | 19 +++++++++++++++++-- > include/linux/mtd/spi-nor.h | 6 +++++- > 2 files changed, 22 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/mtd/spi-nor/spi-nor.c b/drivers/mtd/spi-nor/spi-nor.c > index bc266f7..200e814 100644 > --- a/drivers/mtd/spi-nor/spi-nor.c > +++ b/drivers/mtd/spi-nor/spi-nor.c > @@ -330,8 +330,23 @@ static inline int spi_nor_fsr_ready(struct spi_nor *nor) > int fsr = read_fsr(nor); > if (fsr < 0) > return fsr; > - else > - return fsr & FSR_READY; > + > + if (fsr & (FSR_E_ERR | FSR_P_ERR)) { > + if (fsr & FSR_E_ERR) > + dev_err(nor->dev, "Erase operation failed.\n"); > + else > + dev_err(nor->dev, "Program operation failed.\n"); > + > + if (fsr & FSR_PT_ERR) > + dev_err(nor->dev, > + "The operation has attempted to modify the protected" A space ' ' is missing after "protected". Also please verify next version passes the checkpatch test because this version doesn't. I think you should check the verb tense consistency: [...] operation failed.
