wl12xx: Fix validation of pm_runtime_get_sync return value
wl1271_sdio_power_on checks if the return value of pm_runtime_get_sync is non-zero, and if so bails out. However, pm_runtime_get_sync can return a positive number which does not suggest an error has occurred. This is problematic for two reasons: 1. The function will needlessly bail out without decrementing back the runtime PM reference counter. 2. wl1271_power_on only checks if wl1271_power_on return value is negative. This means that wl1271_power_on will continue even if wl1271_sdio_power_on bailed out. As a result, sdio transactions will be initiated without properly enabling the sdio function and claiming the host. This could even lead to a kernel panic. Fix this by only checking that the return value of pm_runtime_get_sync is non-negative. Signed-off-by: Ido Yariv <ido@wizery.com> Acked-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
