Without this patch, the acpi_parse_entries_array() function will return
the very first time there is any error found in either the array of
callback functions or if one of the callbacks returns an non-zero value.
However, the array of callbacks could still have valid entries further
on in the array, or the callbacks may be able to process subsequent
subtables without error.  The change here makes the function consistent
with its description so that it will properly return the sum of all
matching entries for all proc handlers, instead of stopping abruptly
as it does today.
