From: Michael Kelley <mhklinux@xxxxxxxxxxx> If the util_init function call in util_probe() returns an error code, util_probe() always return ENODEV, and the error code from the util_init function is lost. The error message output in the caller, vmbus_probe(), doesn't show the real error code. Fix this by just returning the error code from the util_init function. There doesn't seem to be a reason to force ENODEV, as other errors such as ENOMEM can already be returned from util_probe(). And the code in call_driver_probe() implies that ENODEV should mean that a matching driver wasn't found, which is not the case here.
