[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 138/211] drm: Fix return value of drm_framebuffer_init()

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Jan 05 2016 - 15:13:54 EST


4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Lukas Wunner <lukas@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 3c67d839b30c7d6d6ab5c6fddac0f58ec8095d50 upstream.

In its original version, drm_framebuffer_init() returned a negative int
if drm_mode_object_get() failed (f453ba046074, "DRM: add mode setting
support").

This was accidentally disabled by commit 4b096ac10da0 ("drm: revamp
locking around fb creation/destruction"). Thus, drm_framebuffer_init()
pretends success if drm_mode_object_get() failed.

Reinstate the original behaviour. Also fix erroneous kernel-doc of
drm_mode_object_get().

Fixes: 4b096ac10da0 ("drm: revamp locking around fb creation/
destruction")
