From: Louis Rilling Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2008 17:01:00 +0000 (+0200) Subject: configfs: Make configfs_new_dirent() return error code instead of NULL X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc1~1036^2~5 X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=107ed40bd070df5e4a0a012042c45c40963dc574;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git configfs: Make configfs_new_dirent() return error code instead of NULL This patch makes configfs_new_dirent return negative error code instead of NULL, which will be useful in the next patch to differentiate ENOMEM from ENOENT.
