[PATCH] crypto: asymmetric_keys: Fix PKCS#7 selftest error reporting
From: m-amirpour
Date: Sat Oct 17 2026 - 17:05:33 EST
From: Muhammad Mahdi Amirpour <ampr.mhd@xxxxxxxxx>
pkcs7_parse_message() returns an error pointer on failure, but the
selftest prints ret, which still contains the result of the previous
x509_load_certificate_list() call.
Print the parser's error pointer with %pe so that a failure reports
the actual parsing error.
