From 796a8e423ac8afe9e98ad96e668f50142bdd7825 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Dooks Date: Wed, 26 May 2010 14:42:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] gpiolib: make gpiochip_add() show a better error message The current message, 'not registered' is confusing as it implies it was not registered with something, whereas printing 'failed to register' implies it was the gpiochip_add() call that did not work correctly.
