Re: [PATCH] USB: misplaced parenthesis

[Roel Kluin]

Due to a misplaced parenthesis the usbat_write_block() return value was not
stored, but a boolean. USB_STOR_TRANSPORT_NO_SENSE and USB_STOR_TRANSPORT_ERROR
were returned as USB_STOR_TRANSPORT_FAILED.

Ok, thanks for comments, This should fix and separate the assignment as desired.
