Uh, Thanks!

But wait, I think there's another return 0 in the error
path. See p54pci.c @ line 558:

mem_len = pci_resource_len(pdev, 0);
if (mem_len < sizeof(...)) {
dev_err(...)
goto err_disabled_dev;
}

Do you think you can add a err = -EINVAL; before the goto too?
[I wonder why this wasn't found by the verification project as
well? Could it be that pci_resource_len(...) < sizeof(...) is
somehow always true and this is a dead branch?]
