[PATCH 1/2] xen: correct error handling in xen-acpi-processor

From: Juergen Gross
Date: Fri Mar 31 2017 - 07:20:32 EST


Error handling in upload_pm_data() is rather questionable: possible
errno values from called functions are or'ed together resulting in
strange return values: -EINVAL and -ENOMEM would e.g. result in
returning -EXDEV.

Fix this by bailing out early after the first error.
