From 563edf85ce18a90dd0a7b39e279a691d937205f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Thomas=20Wei=C3=9Fschuh?= Date: Tue, 7 Sep 2021 14:47:51 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] backlight: Propagate errors from get_brightness() MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit backlight.h documents "struct backlight_ops->get_brightness()" to return a negative errno on failure. So far these errors have not been handled in the backlight core. This leads to negative values being exposed through sysfs although only positive values are documented to be reported.
