Subject[patch 4/6] ACPI processor: extract return values using PTR_ERR
DateFri, 15 Feb 2008 10:54:07 +0530
From"Thomas, Sujith" <>
From: Thomas Sujith <sujith.thomas@intel.com>

Need to extract errors using PTR_ERR macro and
process accordingly.thermal_cooling_device_register
returning NULL means that CONFIG_THERMAL=n and in that
case no need to create symbolic links.
