Subject: [PATCH] devfreq: add error check for sscanf in userspace governor
Date: Mon,  7 Aug 2017 18:36:45 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1502111205-22560-2-git-send-email-gsantosh@codeaurora.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1502111205-22560-1-git-send-email-gsantosh@codeaurora.org>

store_freq function of devfreq userspace governor
executes further, even if error is returned from sscanf,
this will result in setting up wrong frequency value.

Add proper error check to bail out if any error is returned.
