[PATCH] HID: amd_sfh: don't log error when device discovery fails with -EOPNOTSUPP

From: Maximilian Pezzullo via B4 Relay

Date: Wed Mar 04 2026 - 03:29:09 EST


From: Maximilian Pezzullo <maximilianpezzullo@xxxxxxxxx>

When sensor discovery fails on systems without AMD SFH sensors, the
code already emits a warning via dev_warn() in amd_sfh_hid_client_init().
The subsequent dev_err() in sfh_init_work() for the same -EOPNOTSUPP
return value is redundant and causes unnecessary alarm.

Suppress the dev_err() for -EOPNOTSUPP to avoid confusing users who
have no AMD SFH sensors.

Fixes: 2105e8e00da4 ("HID: amd_sfh: Improve boot time when SFH is available")

Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=221099
