[PATCH V3 4/8] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Keep PCI PMUs working when MMIO/MSR setup fails
From: Zide Chen
Date: Thu Jun 11 2026 - 12:16:21 EST
uncore_event_cpu_online() returns -ENOMEM early when both the MSR and
MMIO box allocations fail. This also aborts PCI uncore setup, even
though PCI PMUs are independent of the MSR/MMIO paths.
Remove the early return so PCI uncore setup always runs regardless
of whether MSR or MMIO box allocation succeeds.
Fixes: 3da04b8a00dd ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Support MMIO type uncore blocks")
