From 6714796edcce27f7a1845e2f79783cd51bb4799b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wen Yaxng Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2017 09:55:03 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] genirq/proc: Return proper error code when irq_set_affinity() fails write_irq_affinity() returns the number of written bytes, which means success, unconditionally whether the actual irq_set_affinity() call succeeded or not. Add proper error handling and pass the error code returned from irq_set_affinity() back to user space in case of failure.
