ipmi:msghandler: Handle error returns from the SMI sender
It used to be, until recently, that the sender operation on the low level interfaces would not fail. That's not the case any more with recent changes. So check the return value from the sender operation, and propagate it back up from there and handle the errors in all places. Reported-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael@kernel.org> Fixes: bc3a9d217755 ("ipmi:si: Gracefully handle if the BMC is non-functional") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.18 Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <corey@minyard.net> Reviewed-by: Rafael J.
