[PATCH v1 0/6] console: unify return codes from ->setup() hook

From: Andy Shevchenko
Date: Thu Jun 18 2020 - 12:48:22 EST


Some of the console providers treat error code, returned by ->setup() hook,
differently. Here is the unification of the behaviour.

The drivers checked by one of the below criteria:
1/ the driver has explicit struct console .setup assignment
2/ the driver has assigned callback to the setup member

All such drivers were read in order to see if there is any problematic return
codes, and fixed accordingly which is this series in the result.

Andy Shevchenko (6):
mips: Return proper error code from console ->setup() hook
serial: sunsab: Return proper error code from console ->setup() hook
serial: sunzilog: Return proper error code from console ->setup() hook
tty: hvc: Return proper error code from console ->setup() hook
console: Propagate error code from console ->setup()
console: Fix trivia typo 'change' -> 'chance'
