Subject: [PATCH 3.16 007/346] [media] em28xx-i2c: rt_mutex_trylock()
 returns zero on failure

3.16.39-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit e44c153b30c9a0580fc2b5a93f3c6d593def2278 upstream.

The code is checking for negative returns but it should be checking for
zero.

Fixes: aab3125c43d8 ('[media] em28xx: add support for registering multiple i2c buses')
