commit 2c334d038466ac509468fbe06905a32d202117db upstream.
Since commit
commit f16d9fb6cf03 ("power: supply: bq27xxx: Retrieve again when busy")
the console log of some devices with hdq enabled but no bq27000 battery
(like e.g. the Pandaboard) is flooded with messages like:
[ 34.247833] power_supply bq27000-battery: driver failed to report 'status' property: -1
as soon as user-space is finding a /sys entry and trying to read the
"status" property.
It turns out that the offending commit changes the logic to now return the
value of cache.flags if it is <0. This is likely under the assumption that
it is an error number. In normal errors from bq27xxx_read() this is indeed
the case.
But there is special code to detect if no bq27000 is installed or accessible
through hdq/1wire and wants to report this. In that case, the cache.flags
are set historically by
commit 3dd843e1c2 ("bq27000: report missing device better.")
to constant -1 which did make reading properties return -ENODEV. So everything
appeared to be fine before the return value was passed upwards.
Now the -1 is returned as -EPERM instead of -ENODEV, triggering the error
condition in power_supply_format_property() which then floods the console log.
So we change the detection of missing bq27000 battery to simply set
cache.flags = -ENODEV
instead of -1.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
