[PATCH] 2.4.18 linux/drivers/maestro.c dev_audio flaw

Hi !

It seems that the value of ess->dev_audio is wrongly interpreted. Here's
its only initialization :
(maestro.c:3473)

                if ((s->dev_audio = register_sound_dsp(&ess_audio_fops, -1)) < 0)

register_sound_dsp can return -ENOMEM for instance, so checking whether < 0
is mandatory. However, in (almost) the rest of the file, only == -1 is
tested, so here's a patch.

Furthermore, printing some error message may sometimes be handy, such as when
-ENOENT is returned (no hole was found for the driver), just to understand why
the device was probed, but isn't actually accessible.

Best regards,

Samuel Thibault
