Subject: net/mlx5: Fix return type mismatch in mlx5_esw_vport_vhca_id()
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ca12c4a155ebf84e9ef29b05ce979bc89364290f;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

net/mlx5: Fix return type mismatch in mlx5_esw_vport_vhca_id()

The function mlx5_esw_vport_vhca_id() is declared to return bool,
but returns -EOPNOTSUPP (-45), which is an int error code. This
causes a signedness bug as reported by smatch.

This patch fixes this smatch report:
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/eswitch.h:981 mlx5_esw_vport_vhca_id()
warn: signedness bug returning '(-45)'
