From b3126ceaa31fb23a5e00c5e5380d5d7ff9e9e1a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Mon, 3 May 2021 13:57:25 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "media: dvb: Add check on sp8870_readreg" This reverts commit 03005b95b44316a962bc831ca9b17c023c909afe. Because of recent interactions with developers from @umn.edu, all commits from them have been recently re-reviewed to ensure if they were correct or not. Upon review, this commit was found to be incorrect for the reasons below, so it must be reverted. It will be fixed up "correctly" in a later kernel change. This commit is not properly checking for an error at all, so if a read succeeds from this device, it will error out.
