[PATCH] HID: hiddev: return -ENOMEM when kmalloc failed
From: Yang Li
Date: Mon Apr 26 2021 - 05:35:33 EST
The driver is using -1 instead of the -ENOMEM defined macro to
specify that a buffer allocation failed. Using the correct error
code is more intuitive.
Smatch tool warning:
drivers/hid/usbhid/hiddev.c:894 hiddev_connect() warn: returning -1
instead of -ENOMEM is sloppy
No functional change, just more standardized.
