Subject: [PATCH net] xsk: Fix error return code in __xp_assign_dev()

Fix to return a negative error code from the error handling
case instead of 0, as done elsewhere in this function.

Fixes: 921b68692abb ("xsk: Enable sharing of dma mappings")

Good catch! My intention here by not setting err is that it should
fall back to copy mode, which it does. The problem is that the
force_zc flag is disregarded when err is not set (see exit code below)
and your patch fixes that. If force_zc is set, we should exit out with
an error, not fall back. Could you please write about this in your
cover letter and send a v2?

BTW, what is the "Hulk Robot" that is in your Reported-by tag?

Thank you: Magnus

err_unreg_xsk:
xp_disable_drv_zc(pool);
err_unreg_pool:
if (!force_zc)
err = 0; /* fallback to copy mode */
if (err)
xsk_clear_pool_at_qid(netdev, queue_id);
return err;

Thanks for the suggestion, I have sent the v2 patch, please take another look.
