[PATCH 2/2] [media] tlg2300: fix checking firmware in poseidon_probe()

From: Alexey Khoroshilov
Date: Mon Jun 24 2013 - 15:58:53 EST


check_firmware() makes sure firmware is in a device.
It returns zero on success and error code otherwise.
Also it sets down_firmware flag to 1 if downloading occurs.

The only caller poseidon_probe() checks down_firmware flag and
returns 0 without any initialization if it is set.

That looks very strange, so the patch removes down_firmware argument
of check_firmware() and returns error code if check_firmware() fails
in poseidon_probe().

Not tested on real hardware.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
