[PATCH] platform/x86: huawei-wmi: Fix misuse of strcmp() function

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Tue Oct 15 2019 - 14:26:26 EST


Comparing the result of strcmp directly with 1 may cause it to be
misinterpreted. Note that strcmp may return an integer besides -1,
0, or 1.

Fix this by returning -ENODEV only when strcmp() returns a value
other than 0.
