I think you may be reading the code incorrectly. device_property_read_u32()
returns 0 when the property is found and valid...and stored into
xhci->imod_interval. When 0 is returned in this case, the default value of
40,000 is skipped over.

If the property is not found, a number of different errors could be returned,
but any of them will cause the default value to be used.

I do not disagree with you, however, I was trying to maintain style consistency
with the device property reads with the xhci_plat_probe function.

If I break that consistency, a couple of ways I might write this cleaner

1) set xhci->imod_interval to 40,000 before the call to
device_property_read_u32. If the property exists in a firmware node, it will
update the imod_interval value...if it does not exist, it will not update this
value and the default will be used. In this case, I would not even check the
return value. This method is used quite a bit in the kernel.

2) use a if (device_property_present()) and check to see if that property is
even present. If so, call device_property_read_u32() without check return value.
This has the downside of still using a function call within the if() which you
have already indicated is not your preference.

3) add a retval and test off of this instead of using the function directly in
the if()

Thanks for taking time to review my patch. I really have no strong preference on
how call device_property_read_u32() is tested and I am open to any suggestions.
