#1613901 — [PATCH 1/2] xen: correct error handling in xen-acpi-processor

Error handling in upload_pm_data() is rather questionable: possible
errno values from called functions are or'ed together resulting in
strange return values: -EINVAL and -ENOMEM would e.g. result in
returning -EXDEV.

Fix this by bailing out early after the first error.

And it doesn't matter anyway since noone checks return value. (not that
OR-ing errors makes much sense)

I am not sure about this: why should we not try to load P states if C
states failed to load?

Ha, you are right!

So I can just fold the patches into one and turn some more functions
into retuning void.

#1613905 — [PATCH 2/2] xen: make functions in xen-acpi-processor return void

The return value of xen_copy_pct_data() is always 0 and never checked.
xen_copy_psd_data() returns always 0, too, so checking the value is
kind of pointless.

Make the functions return void.
