+Subject: [PATCH 168/174] spidev: fix hang when transfer_one_message fails
+
+commit e120cc0dcf2880a4c5c0a6cb27b655600a1cfa1d upstream.
+
+This corrects a problem in spi_pump_messages() that leads to an spi
+message hanging forever when a call to transfer_one_message() fails.
+This failure occurs in my MCP2210 driver when the cs_change bit is set
+on the last transfer in a message, an operation which the hardware does
+not support.
+
+Rationale
+Since the transfer_one_message() returns an int, we must presume that it
+may fail.  If transfer_one_message() should never fail, it should return
+void.  Thus, calls to transfer_one_message() should properly manage a
+failure.
+
+Fixes: ffbbdd21329f3 (spi: create a message queueing infrastructure)
