The driver is using -1 instead of the -ENOMEM defined macro to specify that a buffer allocation failed. Using the correct error code is more intuitive. Smatch tool warning: drivers/net/bonding/bond_alb.c:850 rlb_initialize() warn: returning -1 instead of -ENOMEM is sloppy No functional change, just more standardized.
