Changes in v2:
- Remove the now-unused out_free_domain error label in the xive
patch after deleting the unreachable NULL check goto.
- Fix a use-after-free of xive_ipis: when xive_init_ipis() fails,
the error path frees xive_ipis but xive_smp_probe() ignores the
error and proceeds to dereference it in xive_setup_cpu_ipi().
Propagate the error return through xive_smp_probe() and check
it in both pnv_smp_probe() and pSeries_smp_probe().
This is a code cleanup series that removes unreachable
NULL checks (and associated error handling) that follow allocations
using __GFP_NOFAIL, which guarantees non-NULL return.
