imo neither the existing code nor the modified code is correct.
the driver is attempting to register to support two different buses.
if either of these is successful then ath10k_pci_init() should return 0
so that hardware attached to the successful bus can be probed and supported.
only if both of these are unsuccessful should ath10k_pci_init() return
an errno.
so I suggest
int ret1, ret2;
ret1 = pci_register_driver(&ath10k_pci_driver);
if (ret1)
printk(KERN_ERR "failed to register ath10k pci driver: %d\n",
ret1);
ret2 = ath10k_ahb_init();
if (ret2)
printk(KERN_ERR "ahb init failed: %d\n", ret2);
if (ret1 && ret2)
return ret1;
/* registered to at least one bus */
return 0;
}
