[PATCH 3.18 09/29] iio: ad9523: Fix return value for ad952x_store()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Sep 07 2018 - 17:45:29 EST


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

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

From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9a5094ca29ea9b1da301b31fd377c0c0c4c23034 upstream.

A sysfs write callback function needs to either return the number of
consumed characters or an error.

The ad952x_store() function currently returns 0 if the input value was "0",
this will signal that no characters have been consumed and the function
will be called repeatedly in a loop indefinitely. Fix this by returning
number of supplied characters to indicate that the whole input string has
been consumed.
