    staging:iio:ad7606: Remove out-of-band error reporting · aa960266
    Lars-Peter Clausen authored
    Currently the ad7606 driver prints a error message to the kernel log when
    an application writes an invalid value to a sysfs attribute. While for
    initial driver development and testing this might be useful it is quite
    disadvantageous in a production environment. The write() call to the sysfs
    attribute will already return an error if the value was invalid so the
    application is aware that the operation failed. And generally speaking it
    is impossible for an application to reliably match a log message in the
    kernel log to a specific operation it performed, so the message becomes
    just noise and might distract from more critical messages.
