Subject: netxen: do_rom_fast_write error handling
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f8dfdd5cab482a2ce4a8e2375e1512aa4829c653;p=linux-beck.git

netxen: do_rom_fast_write error handling

Compiler warning spots real error!

The function do_rom_fast_read called in do_rom_fast_write can fail
and leave data1 unset. This causes a compile warning.
The correct thing is to propagate the error out.
