[PATCH 4.9 016/177] ACPI/processor: Fix error handling in __acpi_processor_start()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit a5cbdf693a60d5b86d4d21dfedd90f17754eb273 ]

When acpi_install_notify_handler() fails the cooling device stays
registered and the sysfs files created via acpi_pss_perf_init() are
leaked and the function returns success.

Undo acpi_pss_perf_init() and return a proper error code.
