## Overview

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iio: light: rohm-bu27034: Fix infinite delay on error

When reading an integration-time fails, the code will use error code to
compute the sleep time.

Fix this by using the smallest integration time as a default if
reading fails.

## Affected

- `Linux >= e52afbd61039e2c5a4e611e23b4aa963d34a4aef < 050482f958521d80603e88d5c3a59872528ec13c`
