Linux kernel source tree
Currently DAPM has a lot of similar code to handle errors from
snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked, and much of this code does
not really accurately reflect what the function returns.
Firstly, most places will check for a return value of
-EPROBE_DEFER and silence any error messages in that case. The
one notable exception here being dapm_kcontrol_data_alloc
which does currently print any error messages in the case
of snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked returning NULL or an
error. Additionally the error prints being silenced in these
case are redundant as snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked can
only return -EPROBE_DEFER or NULL when failing.
Secondly, most places will treat a return value of NULL as
an -ENOMEM. This is not correct either since any error except
EPROBE_DEFER will cause a return value of NULL from
snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked.
Centralise this handling and the error messages within
snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked and update the callers
to simply check IS_ERR and return. Note that this update is
slightly simpler in the case of dapm_kcontrol_data_alloc where
that is fairly close to the handling that was already in place.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
