Subject: [PATCH RESEND] sep: Fix sign of error return
Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2012 14:21:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120410132054.28262.82704.stgit@bob.linux.org.uk> (raw)

From: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com>

One of our errors wasn't negative as intended. Fix this.
(Found by Hillf Danton)

While we are at it turn user causable messages down to dev_dbg level in the
ioctl paths.
