Subject: [PATCH 1/2] RDMA/hfi1: Fix error return code in parse_platform_config()

In the previous while loop, "ret" may be assigned zero. Therefore,
"ret" needs to be assigned -EINVAL at the beginning of each loop.

You may do it differently and simplify even existing code, i.e.

// The following two lines to add
bali_with_einval:
ret = -EINVAL;
bail:
memset(pcfgcache, 0, sizeof(struct platform_config_cache));
return ret;

Then you convert all goto bail; to goto bail_with_einval; where it's
appropriate. And dropping some duplicative ret = -EINVAL; lines above.
