[PATCH v2] net: airoha: Fix error handling in airoha_ppe_flush_sram_entries()

Fri Jun 12 02:48:15 PDT 2026


> In airoha_ppe_flush_sram_entries(), the outer "err" variable was never
> updated when the inner loop variable shadowed it, causing the function
> to always return 0 even when airoha_ppe_foe_commit_sram_entry() fails.
> 
> Drop the outer "err" variable and return directly on error, propagating
> the error code from airoha_ppe_foe_commit_sram_entry() correctly.
> 
> Fixes: 620d7b91aadb ("net: airoha: ppe: Flush PPE SRAM table during PPE setup")
