[PATCH] hwmon: gpd-fan: Fix return value when platform_get_resource() fails
Posted by Harshit Mogalapalli 2 months, 1 week ago
When platform_get_resource() fails it returns NULL and not an error
pointer, accordingly change the error handling.

Fixes: 0ab88e239439 ("hwmon: add GPD devices sensor driver")

This is based on static analysis with Smatch, only compile tested.
