Subject: [PATCH v6] staging: vt6656: add error code handling to unused variable

Add error code handling to unused 'ret' variable that was never used.
Return an error code from functions called within vnt_radio_power_on.

Issue reported by coccinelle (coccicheck).

Hmm, sorry, I haven't been clear enough I guess.

This is what you're doing:

if rf_type is not in that list:
- set some bits in a register
- did it fail? return
- did it fail? return
...

if rf_type is in that list:
- set some bits in a register
- did it fail? return
- set some other bits
- did it fail? return
...

Now, the "set some other bits" part is already selected depending on
rf_type. There's no need to check 'ret' otherwise, so you can move the
return just after setting 'ret', in the switch case.

With a check, because you don't want to return if ret == 0.

Thank you for pointing that out Stefano. That would be a serious issue
with logic.

Just to be sure. Are you looking for this?

switch (priv->rf_type) {
case RF_AL2230:
case RF_AL2230S:
case RF_AIROHA7230:
case RF_VT3226:
case RF_VT3226D0:
case RF_VT3342A0:
ret = vnt_mac_reg_bits_on(priv, MAC_REG_SOFTPWRCTL,
(SOFTPWRCTL_SWPE2 |
SOFTPWRCTL_SWPE3));
if (ret)
return ret;
}

>

What do you mean exactly by this?

The new code should only return a 0 at the end of the function with the
vnt_mac_reg_bits_off call.

Exactly what you wrote above: if (ret) ...

That, or an error code if vnt_mac_reg_bits_off() fails.
