Subject: [PATCH 3.16 071/305] mtd: spi-nor: fsl-quadspi: Don't let -EINVAL
 on the bus

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

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

From: Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@...gutronix.de>

commit 000412276370a9bcfec73b3752ceefd9a927f1db upstream.

fsl_qspi_get_seqid() may return -EINVAL, but fsl_qspi_init_ahb_read()
doesn't check for error codes with the result that -EINVAL could find
itself signalled over the bus.

In conjunction with the LS1046A SoC's A-009283 errata
("Illegal accesses to SPI flash memory can result in a system hang")
this illegal access to SPI flash memory results in a system hang
if userspace attempts reading later on.

Avoid this by always checking fsl_qspi_get_seqid()'s return value
and bail out otherwise.
