Rafael observed [1] that returning 0 from processor_add() will result in acpi_default_enumeration() being called which will attempt to create a platform device, but that makes little sense when the processor is known to be not available. So just return the error code from acpi_processor_get_info() instead. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAJZ5v0iKU8ra9jR+EmgxbuNm=Uwx2m1-8vn_RAZ+aCiUVLe3Pw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ [1] Suggested-by: Rafael J.
