[PATCH 1/4] KVM: arm64: change return value in arm64_check_features()

From: Sebastian Ott
Date: Fri Apr 05 2024 - 08:01:39 EST


arm64_check_features() returns -E2BIG to indicate the register's
feature set is a superset of the maximally-allowed register value.

The only caller of that function changes this to -EINVAL since
that's what userspace expects for invalid register writes.

In preparation of adding another caller for arm64_check_features()
that would need to do the same conversion just return -EINVAL
directly.
