[PATCH 5.4 180/475] iwlwifi: Fix -EIO error code that is never returned

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Apr 14 2022 - 10:41:08 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c305c94bdc18e45b5ad1db54da4269f8cbfdff6b ]

Currently the error -EIO is being assinged to variable ret when
the READY_BIT is not set but the function iwlagn_mac_start returns
0 rather than ret. Fix this by returning ret instead of 0.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
