Subject: hwmon: (max31790) potential ERR_PTR dereference
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=94cdc5608b5561aeda80edda9c9223608a1da6fc;p=linux-beck.git

hwmon: (max31790) potential ERR_PTR dereference

We should only dereference "data" after we check if it is an error
pointer.

Fixes: 54187ff9d766 ('hwmon: (max31790) Convert to use new hwmon registration API')
