Following build warnings noticed while building arm64 with allmodconfig on stable-rc 5.4 with gcc-8 and gcc-12 toolchains.
Reported-by: Linux Kernel Functional Testing lkft@linaro.org
drivers/gpu/drm/mediatek/mtk_drm_gem.c: In function 'mtk_drm_gem_prime_vmap': drivers/gpu/drm/mediatek/mtk_drm_gem.c:273:10: warning: returning 'int' from a function with return type 'void *' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion] return -ENOMEM; ^
Well, this is easy to solve. For the Linux-5.4 kernel, we should use "return -ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM)" instead of "return -ENOMEM". Since, newer version kernel prefer to return error code instead of error pointer. See below commit for more information.
commit <7e542ff8b463> ("drm/mediatek: Use struct dma_buf_map in GEM vmap ops") commit <49a3f51dfeee> ("drm/gem: Use struct dma_buf_map in GEM vmap ops and convert GEM backends")
