    Subject[PATCH 3.15 097/122] iio: of_iio_channel_get_by_name() returns non-null pointers for error legs
    Date
    3.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Adam Thomson <Adam.Thomson.Opensource@diasemi.com>

    commit a2c12493ed7e63a18cef33a71686d12ffcd6600e upstream.

    Currently in the inkern.c code for IIO framework, the function
    of_iio_channel_get_by_name() will return a non-NULL pointer when
    it cannot find a channel using of_iio_channel_get() and when it
    tries to search for 'io-channel-ranges' property and fails. This
    is incorrect behaviour as the function which calls this expects
    a NULL pointer for failure. This patch rectifies the issue.
