At quick glance, the restore_cpu_complex() is only used for restoring
the GIC's state on Tegra.

I don't think it's really worth the effort to handle
restore_cpu_complex() specially in a case of the error condition because
the chance that the error will ever happen is very small and restoring
the cluster's state won't cause any trouble in that case.

Let's keep this patch as-is for simplicity :)
