Petr Štetiar says: ==================== of_get_mac_address ERR_PTR fixes this patch series is an attempt to fix the mess, I've somehow managed to introduce. First patch in this series is defacto v5 of the previous 05/10 patch in the series, but since the v4 of this 05/10 patch wasn't picked up by the patchwork for some unknown reason, this patch wasn't applied with the other 9 patches in the series, so I'm resending it as a separate patch of this fixup series again. Second patch is a result of this rebase against net-next tree, where I was checking again all current users of of_get_mac_address and found out, that there's new one in DSA, so I've converted this user to the new ERR_PTR encoded error value as well. Third patch which was sent as v5 wasn't considered for merge, but I still think, that we need to check for possible NULL value, thus current IS_ERR check isn't sufficient and we need to use IS_ERR_OR_NULL instead. Fourth patch fixes warning reported by kbuild test robot. ==================== Tested-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@glider.be> Tested-by: Leonard Crestez <leonard.crestez@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
