[v2] vgem: fix error return in vgem_init()

[PATCH v2] vgem: fix error return in vgem_init()

Posted by Alexandr Sapozhnkiov 2 months, 2 weeks ago

From: Alexandr Sapozhnikov <alsp705@gmail.com>

The dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent function may 
fail to apply a mask due to incorrectly passed parameters. 
However, since this function returns the -EIO error, 
this is an abnormal situation and the error should be logged.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

I suggest to keep the passed parameters in the same line for this function call.
