PCI: Warn on driver probe return value greater than zero
Ages ago, drivers could return values greater than zero from their probe function and this would be regarded as success. But after f3ec4f8 ("PCI: change device runtime PM settings for probe and remove") and 967577b ("PCI/PM: Keep runtime PM enabled for unbound PCI devices"), we set dev->driver to NULL if the driver's probe function returns a value greater than zero. __pci_device_probe() treats this as success, and drivers can still mostly work even with dev->driver == NULL, but PCI power management doesn't work, and we don't call the driver's remove function on rmmod. To help catch these driver problems, issue a warning in this case. [bhelgaas: changelog] Signed-off-by: Stephen M.
