Since commit ac10be5cdbfa ("arm64: Use common
of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt()"), smatch reports the following warning:

  arch/arm64/kernel/machine_kexec_file.c:152 load_other_segments()
  warn: missing error code 'ret'

Return code is not set to an error code in load_other_segments() when
of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() call returns a NULL dtb. This results
in status success (return code set to 0) being returned from
load_other_segments().

Set return code to -EINVAL if of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() returns
NULL dtb.

I'll change the error code to -EINVAL and post an updated patch.

Above the 'if' block we have:

	dtb = of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt(image, initrd_load_addr,
					   initrd_len, cmdline, 0);

Looking at this function, it has several ways to fail, not just on
allocation. However, we assume above that it's always -ENOMEM. We could
do like powerpc and use -EINVAL as more likely than allocation failure
or change of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() to return ERR_PTR() and we use
that. The latter would be my preferred option, though it probably
doesn't matter much. The second best would be -EINVAL.
