Sergei had commented on this patch with valid concerns, see here in case
you don't have his reply in your inbox:

    http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-tegra/patch/20200910115607.11392-1-tangbin@cmss.chinamobile.com/#2526208

I agree with those concerns. This patch is broken because it will output
the wrong error code on failure. I don't fully agree with Sergei's point
that this patch isn't worth redoing. I do like the idiomatic error
handling better, but I think we shouldn't be breaking the error messages
like this.
