[PATCH v2 1/1] device property: Allow error pointer to be passed to fwnode APIs

From: Andy Shevchenko
Date: Fri Mar 04 2022 - 12:33:21 EST


Some of the fwnode APIs might return an error pointer instead of NULL
or valid fwnode handle. The result of such API call may be considered
optional and hence the test for it is usually done in a form of

fwnode = fwnode_find_reference(...);
if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(fwnode))
...error handling...

Nevertheless the resulting fwnode may have bumped reference count and
hence caller of the above API is obliged to call fwnode_handle_put().
Since fwnode may be not valid either as NULL or error pointer the check
has to be performed there. This approach uglifies the code and adds
a point of making a mistake, i.e. forgetting about error point case.

To prevent this allow error pointer to be passed to the fwnode APIs.

Fixes: 83b34afb6b79 ("device property: Introduce fwnode_find_reference()")

v2: adjusted the entire fwnode API (Sakari)

Nuno, can you test this with the ltc2983 series, including the IS_ERR_OR_NULL()
fix to it?
