[ upstream commit 21f965221e7c42609521342403e8fb91b8b3e76e ] If an SQPOLL based ring is newly created and an application issues an io_uring_enter(2) system call on it, then we can return a spurious -EOWNERDEAD error. This happens because there's nothing to submit, and if the caller doesn't specify any other action, the initial error assignment of -EOWNERDEAD never gets overwritten. This causes us to return it directly, even if it isn't valid. Move the error assignment into the actual failure case instead.

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.
