The enter() callback of CPUIDLE drivers returns index of the entered idle
state on success or a negative value on failure. The negative value could
any negative value, i.e. it doesn't necessarily needs to be a error code.
That's because CPUIDLE core only cares about the fact of failure and not
about the reason of the enter() failure.
Like every other enter() callback, the arm_cpuidle_simple_enter() returns
the entered idle-index on success. Unlike some of other drivers, it never
fails. It happened that TEGRA_C1=index=err=0 in the code of cpuidle-tegra
driver, and thus, there is no problem for the cpuidle-tegra driver created
by the typo in the code which assumes that the arm_cpuidle_simple_enter()
returns a error code.
The arm_cpuidle_simple_enter() also may return a -ENODEV error if CPU_IDLE
is disabled in a kernel's config, but all CPUIDLE drivers are disabled if
CPU_IDLE is disabled, including the cpuidle-tegra driver. So we can't ever
see the error code from arm_cpuidle_simple_enter() today.
Of course the code may get some changes in the future and then the
typo may transform into a real bug, so let's correct the typo! The
tegra_cpuidle_state_enter() is now changed to make it return the entered
idle-index on success and negative error code on fail, which puts it on
par with the arm_cpuidle_simple_enter(), making code consistent in regards
to the error handling.
This patch fixes a minor typo in the code, it doesn't fix any bugs.
