More common kernel style would be to rewrite the function
(and to fix the typo of retrieve) to something like:  

static int retrieveFromFile(char *path, u8 *buf, u32 sz)
{
	int ret;
	mm_segment_t oldfs;
	struct file *fp;

	if (!path || !buf) {
		DBG_871X("%s NULL pointer\n", __func__);
		return -EINVAL;
	}

	ret = openFile(&fp, path, O_RDONLY, 0);
	if (ret) {
		DBG_871X("%s openFile path:%s Fail, ret:%d\n",
			 __func__, path, ret);
		return ret;
	}

	DBG_871X("%s openFile path:%s fp =%p\n", __func__, path , fp);

	oldfs = get_fs();
	set_fs(KERNEL_DS);
	ret = readFile(fp, buf, sz);
	set_fs(oldfs);
	closeFile(fp);

	DBG_871X("%s readFile, ret:%d\n", __func__, ret);

	return ret;
}
