[PATCH] [mfd] da9052: Add error handling for spi_setup in da9052_spi_probe

From: Haoran Liu
Date: Sun Dec 03 2023 - 00:25:09 EST


This patch adds error handling for the spi_setup call. The need for this
error handling was identified through static analysis, which highlighted
the lack of proper handling for potential failures of spi_setup.
Previously, a failure in spi_setup could lead to unstable behavior of
the DA9052 device.

Although the error addressed by this patch may not occur in the current
environment, I still suggest implementing these error handling routines
if the function is not highly time-sensitive. As the environment evolves
or the code gets reused in different contexts, there's a possibility that
these errors might occur. In case you find this addition unnecessary, I
completely understand and respect your perspective. My intention was to
enhance the robustness of the code, but I acknowledge that practical
considerations and current functionality might not warrant this change
at this point.
