[Linux-kernel-mentees] [PATCH 12/14 v3] PCI/AER: Check the return value of pcie_capability_read_*()

["Saheed O. Bolarinwa" <refactormyself@gmail.com>]

From: Bolarinwa Olayemi Saheed <refactormyself@gmail.com>

On failure pcie_capability_read_dword() sets it's last parameter,
val to 0.
However, with Patch 14/14, it is possible that val is set to ~0 on
failure. This would introduce a bug because (x & x) == (~0 & x).

This bug can be avoided if the return value of pcie_capability_read_word
is checked to confirm success.

Check the return value of pcie_capability_read_word() to ensure success.
