[PATCH] btusb: fix overflow return values

From: Adam Lee
Date: Thu Jul 04 2013 - 08:45:33 EST


PTR_ERR() returns a long type value, but btusb_setup_intel() and
btusb_setup_intel_patching() should return an int type value.

This bug makes the judgement "if (ret < 0)" not working on x86_64
architecture systems, leading to failure as below, even panic.

For not affecting other modules, I choose to modify the return values
but not extend btusb_setup_intel() and btusb_setup_intel_patching()'s
return types. This is harmless, because the return values were only
used to comparing number 0.
