From bfb5e825c206ca119e6fe0fe91c460574102be19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Artem Shimko Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2025 13:31:45 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] serial: 8250_dw: handle reset control deassert error [ Upstream commit daeb4037adf7d3349b4a1fb792f4bc9824686a4b ] Check the return value of reset_control_deassert() in the probe function to prevent continuing probe when reset deassertion fails. Previously, reset_control_deassert() was called without checking its return value, which could lead to probe continuing even when the device reset wasn't properly deasserted. The fix checks the return value and returns an error with dev_err_probe() if reset deassertion fails, providing better error handling and diagnostics.
