From daebdd7ee30b4ec7dd6a4e90f1f66c86ec113bbc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Duggan Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2014 13:37:40 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] HID: rmi: print an error if F11 is not found instead of stopping the device Currently rmi_probe will return -EIO if the device doesn't report that it has F11. This would indicate that something happened and the device is in the bootloader. We can recover the device using a userspace firmware update tool, but it needs access to the device through the hidraw device file. If the probe returns -EIO the hidraw device won't be created. So instead of failing the probe, just print an error message, but leave the device accessible from userspace.
