[PATCH] iio: light: opt3001: fix missing state reset on timeout

From: Joshua Crofts via B4 Relay

Date: Tue May 26 2026 - 07:16:01 EST


From: Joshua Crofts <joshua.crofts1@xxxxxxxxx>

Currently in the function opt3001_get_processed(), there is a check
that directly returns -ETIMEDOUT if the conversion IRQ times out,
completely bypassing the err label, leaving ok_to_ignore_lock
permanently true, potentially breaking the device's falling threshold
interrupt detection.

Assign -ETIMEDOUT to the return variable and jump to the error label
to ensure ok_to_ignore_lock is properly reset.

Fixes: 26d90b559057 ("iio: light: opt3001: Fixed timeout error when 0 lux")
