Self-NAK. The only place we actually *care* about the retval from a
RUN_DECODER() call is in __ir_input_register(), and currently, its
looking for retval < 0, which is currently never possible. When we're
running the decoders, either they fail and return -EINVAL or they
succeed and return 0, and in the register case, we get either a
negative error (ex: -ENOMEM from rc6) or 0, so with the above, _sumrc
will *always* be 0 in the two cases I'm looking at. The third place
where RUN_DECODER gets called (decoder unregister) doesn't care about
the retval either. New patch below, including updated comments about
the macro.
