What do you suggest ? Shall I stop sending these patches ?

No, it's fine. I'm just saying that there are cases where this doesn't
make sense. In this case I think it's fine because the driver is fairly
mature and unlikely to change, so there is not a lot of potential for
churn later on. In other cases, use your best judgement.
Ultimately it is up to maintainers whether or not they apply this kind
of patch.

I'm not a big fan of this construct because it's a pain to undo this if
ever we need to add code to this function. But since we do have scripts
that will flag this, I guess this would pop up every now and again. The
driver is unlikely to change in this part, too, so:

Thanks for pointing this out. Do you know what the benefit of
PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() is? To me, it makes the following code harder
to read because the error tests are no longer parallel:
...
res->ahb_reset = devm_reset_control_get(dev, "ahb");
if (IS_ERR(res->ahb_reset))
return PTR_ERR(res->ahb_reset);
res->por_reset = devm_reset_control_get(dev, "por");
if (IS_ERR(res->por_reset))
return PTR_ERR(res->por_reset);
res->phy_reset = devm_reset_control_get(dev, "phy");
return PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(res->phy_reset);
So I'd be inclined to avoid it unless there's some significant benefit.

Yeah, I don't like the optics much either. Aside from the fact that it
reduces the line count, I'm not aware of any benefits that this inline
function has. It doesn't have any side-effects or anything, just wraps
the common pattern into a single line.
Looking at the history of the semantic patch that is the basis for the
conversions (scripts/coccinelle/api/ptr_ret.cocci), or the static inline
function itself, no rationale is given for why people prefer this. I've
certainly seen such patches applied in some cases, but I've also seen
other maintainers (including myself) reject them because of personal
preference.

OK, I'm going to drop this then.
