platform/x86: wmi: Fix probe failure when failing to register WMI devices

Browse source

[ Upstream commit ed85891a27 ]

When a WMI device besides the first one somehow fails to register,
retval is returned while still containing a negative error code. This
causes the ACPI device fail to probe, leaving behind zombie WMI devices
leading to various errors later.

Handle the single error path separately and return 0 unconditionally
after trying to register all WMI devices to solve the issue. Also
continue to register WMI devices even if some fail to allocate memory.
