Subject: block: make add_partition() return pointer to hd_struct
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ba32929a91fe2c0628f5be62d1597b379c8d3062;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

block: make add_partition() return pointer to hd_struct

Make add_partition() return pointer to the new hd_struct on success
and ERR_PTR() value on failure.  This change will be used to fix md
autodetection bug.
