The current HuC status getparam return values are a bit confusing in regards to what happens in some scenarios. In particular, most of the error cases cause the ioctl to return an error, but a couple of them, INIT_FAIL and LOAD_FAIL, are not explicitly handled and neither is their expected return value documented; these 2 error cases therefore end up into the catch-all umbrella of the "HuC not loaded" case, with this case therefore including both some error scenarios and the load in progress one. The updates included in this patch change the handling so that all error cases behave the same way, i.e. return an errno code, and so that the HuC load in progress case is unambiguous. The patch also includes a small change to the FW init path to make sure we always transition to an error state if something goes wrong.

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.
