Staging: iio: signedness bug
i2c_smbus_read_byte_data() returns an s32 type. We need to change "rate" to signed for the error handling to work. Also I changed it to propogate the error code instead of just returning -EINVAL. Other error codes could be -EAGAIN for example. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <error27@gmail.com> Acked-by: Jonathan Cameron <jic23@cam.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
