From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jun 19 2017 - 11:19:20 EST
4.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 8128a31eaadbcdfa37774bbd28f3f00bac69996a upstream.
c2port_device_register() never returns NULL, it uses error pointers.
