Subject: [net] can: mcp251xfd: mcp251xfd_probe(): bail out if no IRQ was given
Date: Mon, 23 Nov 2020 12:35:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201123113522.3820052-1-mkl@pengutronix.de> (raw)

This patch add a check to the mcp251xfd_probe() function to bail out and give
the user a proper error message if no IRQ is specified. Otherwise the driver
will probe just fine but ifup will fail with a meaningless "RTNETLINK answers:
Invalid argument" error message.
