Subject: acpi_power_meter: don't leak ACPI error codes to userspace
From: "Darrick J. Wong" <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx>
If the ACPI methods return an error code, we must return -EINVAL to
userspace to flag the error. Right now we pass the (positive) number
right through, which causes echo to keep writing bogus values.
