From 742b11a7ec60faa25d76c95c268041ab215c25ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Date: Sun, 5 Apr 2009 16:26:41 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] net/9p: return error when p9_client_stat fails p9_client_stat function doesn't return correct value if it fails. p9_client_stat should return ERR_PTR of the error value when it fails. Instead, it always returns a value to the allocated p9_wstat struct even when it is not populated correctly. This patch makes p9_client_stat to handle failure correctly.
