[ Upstream commit 7dd9a40fd6e0d0f1fd8e1931c007e080801dfdce ]
When the error check in ath9k_hw_read_revisions() was added, it checked for
-EIO which is what ath9k_regread() in the ath9k_htc driver uses. However,
for plain ath9k, the register read function uses ioread32(), which just
returns -1 on error. So if such a read fails, it still gets passed through
and ends up as a weird mac revision in the log output.
Fix this by changing ath9k_regread() to return -1 on error like ioread32()
does, and fix the error check to look for that instead of -EIO.
Fixes: 2f90c7e5d094 ("ath9k: Check for errors when reading SREV register")

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.
