That bugzilla entry wasn't really needed.

[PATCH 1/1] edac: fix improper return value

2016-12-03 Thread Pan Bian 
From: Pan Bian 

When the call to zalloc_cpumask_var() fails, returning "false" seems
improper. The real value of macro "false" is 0, and 0 means no error.
This patch fixes the bug, returning "-ENOMEM".
