    [ACPI] acpi_register_gsi() can return error · 1f3a6a15
    Kenji Kaneshige 提交于
    Current acpi_register_gsi() function has no way to indicate errors to its
    callers even though acpi_register_gsi() can fail to register gsi because of
    some reasons (out of memory, lack of interrupt vectors, incorrect BIOS, and so
    on).  As a result, caller of acpi_register_gsi() cannot handle the case that
    acpi_register_gsi() fails.  I think failure of acpi_register_gsi() should be
    handled properly.
    
    This series of patches changes acpi_register_gsi() to return negative value on
    error, and also changes callers of acpi_register_gsi() to handle failure of
    acpi_register_gsi().
    
    This patch changes the type of return value of acpi_register_gsi() from
    "unsigned int" to "int" to indicate an error.  If acpi_register_gsi() fails to
    register gsi, it returns negative value.
