From: GuoHan Zhao <zhaoguohan@kylinos.cn>

In xe_hwmon_pcode_rmw_power_limit(), when xe_pcode_read() fails,
the function logs the error but continues to execute the subsequent
logic. This can result in undefined behavior as the values val0 and
val1 may contain invalid data.

Fix this by adding an early return after logging the read failure,
ensuring that we don't proceed with potentially corrupted data.

Fixes: 8aa7306631f0 ("drm/xe/hwmon: Fix xe_hwmon_power_max_write")

V2:
- Change 'drm_dbg' to 'drm_err'
- Added the Fixes tag in commit message

There are still missed/unanswered questions/concerns in the original review:

https://lore.kernel.org/intel-xe/aJtG0xmBBgwnTANg@intel.com

Please ensure to address all of them before re-iterating the patch.

Thanks,
Rodrigo.
