Indicating error message when failed case is very useful for debuging.
In many case, its style is like below.
int function(...)
{
...
return ret;
}
int caller(...)
{
...
ret = function(...);
if (ret < 0)
dev_err(...)
...
}
This is not so bad, but in this style *each caller* needs to indicate
duplicate same error message, and some caller is forgetting to do it.
And caller can't indicate detail function() error information.
If function() indicates error message, we can get same and
detail information without forgot.
int function(...)
{
...
if (ret < 0)
dev_err(...)
return ret;
}
int caller(...)
{
...
ret = function(...);
...
}
This patch follow above style at dpcm_fe/be_dai_startup().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
