I'm not sure this is a huge improvement. Checking IS_ERR()
before using PTR_ERR() is comforting (a little along the
lines of the other issue you mentioned--assigning a result
before checking for an error). Anyway, it's a little bit
of an ugly construct no matter how you do it. Here's another
possible way to do it.
k1->phy[i] = devm_of_phy_get_by_index(dev, node, i);
if (!IS_ERR(k1->phy[i]))
continue;
ret = PTR_ERR(k1->phy[i]);
if (ret == -ENODEV)
break;
return ret;
