[PATCH] drivers/regulator: fix a missing check of return value

[Kangjie Lu]

If palmas_smps_read() fails, we should not use the read data in "reg"
which may contain random value. The fix inserts a check for the return
value of palmas_smps_read(): If it fails, we return the error code
upstream and stop using "reg".

[PATCH v2] regulator: palmas: fix a missing check of return value

[Kangjie Lu]

If palmas_smps_read() fails, we should not use the read data in "reg"
which may contain random value. The fix inserts a check for the return
value of palmas_smps_read(): If it fails, we return the error code
upstream and stop using "reg".

Ah, thanks - I'd actually already applied the earlier version!
