Hi Chaithanya,
Thanks for patch, there is similar version at:

kvm_pch_pic_create() sets up the default IRQ routing and reports every
failure as -ENOMEM, discarding the error code it was given:
ret = kvm_setup_default_irq_routing(kvm);
if (ret)
return -ENOMEM;
kvm_setup_default_irq_routing() returns -ENOMEM only when its routing
entry array cannot be allocated. Otherwise it forwards the result of
kvm_set_irq_routing(), which also fails with -EINVAL when an entry is
rejected by setup_routing_entry(). Userspace creating a
KVM_DEV_TYPE_LOONGARCH_PCHPIC device can therefore receive -ENOMEM even
when IRQ routing setup actually failed with -EINVAL.
Return ret so the original error code reaches userspace. This matches
kvm_eiointc_create(), which already propagates the error code from the
helpers it calls.
Only compile-tested.
